Science in Service of Progress

Just as we bring science to finance, we apply our process of rigorous inquiry, data analysis, and innovation to solve tough challenges in our community and to give back.

Mission Driven Organizations

The Data Clinic team brings together mission driven organizations and Two Sigma volunteers for data science or technology collaborations. These partnerships provide nonprofits with the resources they need to better leverage their data and have a greater impact on the communities they serve.

Developers

We’re committed to sustaining digital infrastructure for the public good – and that manifests in both building our own projects and building on the work of others. We open source some of our internal tools and contribute to open source technologies we believe in.

We are voracious users of open source. You simply can't be a real company without being part of the landscape and community of open source.

Matt Greenwood

Chief Innovation Officer

The Data Clinic team is doing outstanding work with our researchers to optimize our studies, and it is a true testament to the power of data science for improving research, and in turn, outcomes for patients... We have already learned a great deal thanks to their outstanding models and commitment to collaboration.

Robin Hood Foundation

Robin Hood's Learning + Technology Fund aims to leverage technology to transform learning and advance achievement of low-income students across New York City by identifying schools in a position to co-design and implement innovative resources with the Fund’s partners. The Fund felt their current performance criteria eliminated promising school partners, so we partnered to provide alternative performance assessments based on open data. This adjusted approach identified additional schools that were outperforming expectations within their communities, expanding the Fund’s potential candidate pool by nearly 50%.

Marbles

Marbles is a Python unittest extension developed by Two Sigma engineers. Marbles allows test authors to write richer tests that expose more information on test failure.

You can use marbles anywhere you use unittest to get better failure messages that help you debug failing tests faster.
