 This August, we're partnering again with [Madison's Women-in-Tech (WiT)](https://madisonwomen.tech) meetup group. All genders are welcome at this event. Feel free to arrive between 6:00pm and 6:30pm to network with other attendees. The presentation will start at 6:30pm.
 
 Developers and data scientists often work together towards common goals, but sometimes they use different tools to achieve those goals.  It is often said that Python is the second-best language at everything; however when it comes to data science, R reigns supreme.  Fortunately, there's a package for that!  Reticulate is an R package that provides a comprehensive set of tools for interoperability between Python and R.  Come by the MadPy August meeting to learn how to have the best of both worlds!
 
 Jennifer Knack is a microbiologist, molecular biologist, and data scientist with International Flavors and Fragrances (IFF), where she works in probiotics R&D.  Jennifer learned R in graduate school while pursuing a PhD in microbial ecology, and she began learning Python after joining IFF.  She's a cat mom to two fuzzy boys, and in her spare time she enjoys crafting, playing outside, and filling her brain with as much knowledge as possible.

+Software isn’t just developed; it is operated.
+
+DevOps is a philosophy combining development and operations in a tight loop to shorten the software development lifecycle.  This September, David will introduce some tools and design practices to make python software deployments more manageable, faster, and easier.  Starting with a Python script that performs a useful function, we’ll webify it, containerize it, put it in the cloud, and monitor its health.
