While at Princeton Deb will host a public workshop on Tuesday, September 19th, at 12 PM about serendipitous discovery and making connections in the humanities through computational platforms. She will also give a public lecture on Wednesday, September 20th, at 4:30 PM about seeing and identifying relationships through the shape of data.
