Description

Bruce Kristal, Melissa McCradden, Jeyan Thiyagalingam, Zijun Zhang and Carole Goble present a short piece from 2026 in the People of Data series. Each of the five authors is a board member for the series. Each one picks papers that they see as basic to data science, and then talks through those picks. The piece is a guide to key reading, told in five personal views rather than as a single survey of the field.
