  Hunan Medical We-media

  Nov 2015 - Aug 2016

  Data Scientist

  I and some of my friends noticed that there are gaps in medical knowledge of the general public, so we decided to do something to help. We used web crawlers to collect the hot topics of medicine and then worked with a journalist and doctors to produce informative articles. Led a group of 20 to use web crawlers to snatch information regarding medical care. Analysed this data and communicated with the editor group to determine the topics to publish. Contributed to more than a dozen articles, each attracting over 100 000 visitors. Show less
