SUMMARY:Digital Twins in Health Care: Clinical\, Ethical and Legal Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Digital Twins have advanced various fields in engineering for decades and are now entering clinical care\, posing several critical challenges.\nA digital twin\, built of data from a patient and the environment\, aims to mimic the structure and behavior of the physical patient\, is  dynamically updated with new data\, and seeks to make predictions about the patient and inform decisions.  But how should such digital entities be regulated\, and how do and will they affect clinicians\, clinical decisions\, and patients? \nThis multi-disciplinary workshop brings together leading experts – data scientists\, clinicians\, ethicists\, legal scholars and others – to explore these complex and growing cutting edge clinical\, ethical and legal questions. \nThis event is part of the Frontiers in Data Science and AI initiative at the Data Science Institute\, Columbia University\, and is co-sponsored by the Columbia University Masters of Bioethics Program and the Northeast Big Data Innovation Hub. \nAbout Registration:\n\nThis is a hybrid event. Please select Virtual Registration if you do not plan to attend in-person and are seeking the Zoom link.\nSeating for in-person registration is limited. Attendance will be prioritized for faculty\, senior researchers (PhD Students\, Postdocs)\, and external guests (alumni\, clinicians\, and practitioners).\nAll in-person registrations will be confirmed by the DSI Events team.

SUMMARY:NSDC Masterclass: From Data to Decisions in Sports with Iwao Fusillo
DESCRIPTION:The National Student Data Corps (NSDC) Masterclass Video Series showcases experts who share how data science tools and techniques are being leveraged in various domains. \nThis session invites Iwao Fusillo\, the inaugural Chief Data & Analytics Officer for the New York Jets\, where he leads the organization’s data\, AI\, and machine learning strategy across both football and business operations\, to discuss his journey. He oversees a multidisciplinary team of data scientists\, application developers\, and business analysts\, and serves as a strategic advisor to the club’s executive leadership. Fusillo brings more than two decades of leadership experience transforming data and analytics into competitive advantage at iconic organizations. He previously established the NFL’s first data and analytics function for fan engagement\, sponsorship\, and media\, and held Chief Data & Analytics Officer roles at General Motors and PepsiCo. A frequent keynote speaker at industry conferences and academic institutions — including the Snowflake Summit\, Columbia Business School\, and Princeton University — Fusillo has also testified at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce AI Commission’s first public hearing. He holds a B.S.E. in mechanical and aerospace engineering from Princeton and an MBA from Columbia Business School. \nThis event is fully virtual and free for all attendees.

SUMMARY:The Road to 2030 and Beyond - UN SDGs and AI with Florence Hudson and Arthur G.O. Mutambara
DESCRIPTION:The Road to 2030 and Beyond – UN SDGs and AI\nFlorence Hudson and Arthur G.O. Mutambara\nJoin us on Wednesday\, July 8\, 2026 at 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM (EDT) for a discussion with NEBDHub Executive Director Florence Hudson from The Data Science Institute at Columbia University and Professor Dr. Eng. Arthur G.O. Mutambara who is Director and Full Professor at the University of Johannesburg’s Institute for the Future of Knowledge (IFK) in South Africa. The topic is “The Road to 2030 and Beyond – the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and Artificial Intelligence”. We will discuss the power and promise of the UN SDGs\, and how we can meet the promise and continue the momentum into the future. This will include the impact of technology such as AI\, as well as pandemics and other challenges in our path. We must learn from the past to optimize the future. \n\n\n\nThis webinar is hosted by Springer Nature’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Programme which aims to connect the researchers who are tackling the world’s toughest challenges with the practitioners in policy and business who desperately need those insights to achieve their goals in improving the world\, by making our publishing activities more visible to our key communities through a variety of channels. \nSpringer Nature has partnered with Cassyni to create a connected ecosystem of online webinars to help academics\, authors\, and journals learn and maximize their impact in a green and inclusive way. Most sessions will be recorded for on demand viewing with citable content that is freely accessible and fully researchable.
