ABSTRACT for Claude Code for Data Scientists
Thursday, June 4, 2026 | 2:00-3:00pm EDT
AI tools make it easier than ever to spin up new data science projects and customize them to your workflow. But is your setup taking full advantage of AI coding tools? In this session, I'll show you a setup that does.
The session covers an architecture and setup that makes a data science project work well with AI tools, with a live demo building a project from scratch. We'll also look at how the right initial setup makes the downstream work easier, from data cleaning and output quality checks to project write-ups.
Attendees leave with Glen's project setup files and templates, ready to drop into a new project.
This webinar is part of the AI Tools for Data Science & Stats series, sponsored by Polaris Data Labs and the ASA Section on Data Science and Statistical Learning.
Note: If you're looking for context files that work across Cowork, Claude Code, and any AI chat tool, check out our previous webinar: Contextapalooza (May 27).
UPCOMING WEBINARS
[05] Claude Code for Data Scientists
Claude Code runs a lot better once it knows your project structure, analysis workflow, and what you're trying to do. I'll show you my setup for building analysis, data science, and machine learning projects from scratch.
[06] An AI Setup for Data Science Consulting
Clients are asking for AI tools - and some are openly wondering if they still need you. I'll show you one Goldilocks setup where they get the benefit of your expertise and the ability to interrogate their data on demand.
[07] The Data Science Team of One
AI tools can act as a force multiplier for a solo data scientist. The key is being strategic about where you sit in the workflow and what actually gets multiplied. I'll show you what's worked for me.
PAST WEBINARS
[01] The AI Train Has Not Left the Station. (But Get On Board.)
The hardest part of using AI tools is taking the first step. Let's cut through the noise and get you started.
[02] Claude Code, Cowork, & Chat
If I had to pick just one AI tool, it would be Claude. But Claude is actually 3-in-1 - so let's walk through all of them.
[03] Claude Cowork for Data Scientists
Claude Cowork works way better when tuned to data science. I'll hand over the files, prompts, and architecture - and show you how to use them.
[04] Contextapalooza
Like a T-shirt cannon at a sports event, except everyone gets something useful. My favorite context files + the prompts to get AI to tune each one to your situation.
Hope to see you there!
