Dear All,

Personally, I see a statistician like a subset of data science and indeed I find it wrong to call myself a data scientist neither calling anyone a data scientist becuase no one can do all that is entailed in data science. 

Cheers

Levi

Yes it should be changed ,I am a statistician but as far as I know statistics is a part of data science ,so if we changed to data science we broaden our concepts !!

Dear Colleagues,

I have written a short essay about changing the name of the field of
statistics to "data science". The essay discusses significant advantages of
changing the name and suggests that the disadvantages are minimal.

The essay is at http://matstat.com/Macnaughton2017a.pdf
