Presentation:
Panel: Data Integration and Data Access
Several projects are underway in BC to build and link provincial data sets for the benefit of researchers and health science. What principles of data stewardship should guide their design, so that we can improve digital services in the healthcare system?
Presentation: Solving the Trust Equation: Governing Artificial Intelligence (AI) with Emotional Intelligence (EQ)
With increasing cyber-attacks and AI-related issues, concerns about data management are at an all-time high. Our healthcare system is in crisis, and we need a new data governance model like data trusts to address these challenges and foster AI development.
