Abstract: 

How do Social Scientists with minimal coding experience leverage vast networks of research material? How can they validate their ideas based on large bodies of research?

In this presentation, Alison will take you through the example of one independent researchers journey from no-code to knowledge graph master. She will walk you thorugh the steps the researcher took, including how to format data stores, what data to collect, ways to leverage LLMs in the process and ultimately have a working knowledge graph in a dashboard with minimal coding experience.
