Podcast Interview with Estelle Joubert, Dalhousie University

One of the coolest things about Neo4j is just the sheer breadth and diversity of applications that we see for connected data and graph databases out there. I think I have said it before, but it truly continues to baffle me. Very frequently, I will have a morning conversation with a user about battling financial fraud, a lunch conversation about using graphs in biotech to fight world hunger, and an afternoon conversation about real time recommender systems in retail. And of course finish it of with a beergraph conversation in the evening :) ...

Really - it's just amazing. And the next podcast episode is a true testimony to that. I got to have a chat with a lovely lady all the way over in Canada recently, Estelle Joubert from Dalhousie University. She and her team have been using Neo4j in her amazing field of research, which is all about understanding how music and opera came to be what they are today in a historical perspective. She is best at explaining it herself - so here's our chat:


Here's the transcript of our conversation:

RVB:  00:01:20.209 Hello, everyone. My name is Rik, Rik Van Bruggen from Neo4J, and tonight I am joined by a guest on our podcast all the way from Canada, someone that has been working with, and experimenting with, Neo4j for quite some time in a very interesting domain that I hadn't heard of before. And that's Estelle Joubert from Dalhousie University. Hi, Estelle.
