Meet the panel for Date Night!

 

Christian Rudder

Christian is cofounder and CEO of OKCupid. In his new book, Dataclysm: Who We Are (When We Think No One’s Looking), Rudder examines what online data reveal about people’s romantic lives and beyond. According to Forbes, “Dataclysm is all about what we can learn about human minds and hearts by analyzing the massive ongoing experiment that is the internet.” @christianrudder

 

Chris McKinlay

Chris is postdoctoral researcher in the Knights Lab at the University of Minnesota. While working on his dissertation, McKinlay famously reverse-engineered OKCupid’s algorithms in order to match with more potential dates. As a result, he met the woman who would become his fiance. Wired magazine told his story “How a Math Genius Hacked OkCupid to Find True Love” in January 2014. @cem3394
