SUMMARY:What Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion Mean for the Health Sciences and Why Big Data Needs Them All
DESCRIPTION:MON\, MAR 9 / 5:30 PM PDT\nThe Commonwealth Club of California\nTaube Family Auditorium\n110 The Embarcadero\nSan Francisco\, CA 94105 \nPurchase Tickets on the Commonwealth Club Website\nSometimes\, because of the current political pushback\, one can get the false impression that the academic attention that has recently been paid to increasing a university’s diversity\, equity and inclusion profile is a new phenomenon—one that developed after the civil rights gains of minorities and women in the 1950s-70s. But the idea that people with different backgrounds\, experiences\, and viewpoints would produce better work by engaging with each other was a core principle of the first modern research university—which was founded in Germany in 1810. \nThe health sciences are especially dependent on accurate data\, and imaginative but reasoned analysis of that data\, and both the accuracy of the data and the usefulness of its analysis are put at risk by pretending that diversity\, equity and inclusion are harming universities\, including medical research universities\, rather than helping them. The known inaccuracies caused by a historical research emphasis on male health\, and inappropriate applications of those conclusions to female health due to the lack of research data on women\, are examples of the risks involved. \nJoin us to hear Dr. Robert Hiatt\, whose central focus at UCSF has been on building a strong transdisciplinary research and training program in epidemiology\, make the case for how scientifically harmful deemphasizing diversity could be\, and how the emergence of Big Data will be derailed quickly if the data that it uses has been corrupted by political whims distorting its scientific objectivity. \nNotes\nThis program has 2 types of tickets available: in-person and online-only. Please pre-register to receive a link to the live-stream event. \nIf you have symptoms of illness (coughing\, fever\, etc.)\, we ask that you either stay home or wear a mask. Our front desk has complimentary masks for members and guests who would like one. \nThe Commonwealth Club of California is a nonprofit public forum; we welcome donations made during registration to support the production of our programming. \nIn association with The Lundberg Institute and the Philip R Lee Institute for Health Policy Studies at the University of California\, San Francisco (UCSF). \nSpeakers\n\nRobert Hiatt\nM.P.H.\, Ph.D.\, M.D.\, Professor of Biostatistics and Epidemiology\, UCSF School of Medicine \nIntroduction by George Lundberg\nM.D.\, Editor in Chief\, Cancer Commons; Editor at Large\, Medscape; Executive Adviser\, Cureus; Clinical Professor of Pathology\, Northwestern University; President and Chair\, The Lundberg Institute Moderator: George Hammond \nChair\, Humanities Forum

SUMMARY:The 16th Annual Lundberg Institute Lecture: Practicing Pediatrics with Kids and Parents in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:The 16th annual Lundberg Institute Lecture focuses on artificial intelligence and how it is changing the way families seek answers and the way physicians care for children. But what will it mean for the relationship between them? \nPediatrician Alan Greene is a pioneer in digital health\, having started his medical website in 1995. He explores opportunities and risks on both sides of the patient–physician alliance\, including when kids and parents use AI on their own\, and asks how these powerful tools might deepen our capacity for care\, connection and being human—advancing his vision of patients\, families and physicians as partners in care. \nIn-person TicketsOnline Tickets \n\n\n\nOrganizer\nGeorge Hammond \nNotes\nThis program has 2 types of tickets available: in-person and online-only.
