With the ubiquity of technology in our lives have come concerns over privacy, security, and surveillance. These are particularly potent in relation to what's come to be called Big Data. Navigating the complicated terrain is a constant conversation in some sectors of the tech industry, as well as academia. And it's the focus of this episode of Stats and Stories with Christoph Kurz. Kurtz is a postdoc at the department of health economics at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. His research includes statistical methods for health economics and health policy, especially Basie and methods and causal inference. Recently, he's focused on privacy research because of the increased requirements demanded by EU legislators regarding the handling and processing of health data. Kurtz has authored a piece for Significance magazine about the concept of differential privacy.
