In this episode we talked with Sefi Cohen, head of Data Science squad in the IDF. He tells us about the different projects they're doing and how he started a Data Science team with very little knowledge of Machine Learning and Data Science techniques, how he chose the right people for this team and how they all learned the craft together.

Uri Shalit did his Ph.d at the Hebrew University and a post doc in NYU. We talked about his research in machine learning for Health Care and what are the unique challenges in this field, about Causal Inference and how it is relevant to many machine learning problems, and about a cool study he did during his Ph.d about Motif identification in music.
