SUMMARY:CHSPR Seminar | AI-Generated Synthetic Data Does More Harm than Good for Patient Privacy
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bret Nestor\, UBC Centre for Health Services and Policy Research\nSynthetic medical data is increasingly being adopted to protect patients’ privacy while increasing data accessibility for researchers. This talk explores the “no free lunch” theorem as it pertains to synthetic clinical data. Synthetic data land on a spectrum between useful and non-private\, or non-useful and private. We audit for private patient information by conducting membership inference attacks against a variety of privacy preservation defenses. We find that synthetic data harm the most vulnerable patients more often than when abstaining from any privacy protections. Simple privacy audits can be misleading. Occasionally\, we find an audit task that says synthetic data protects patient privacy. Concerningly\, for any set of synthetically generated clinical data\, we find at least one audit task that reveals more patient information than algorithms which use unprotected patient data. We conclude that synthetic data are not a viable option for protecting patients’ right to privacy. Differential privacy continues to be the best way to protect patient privacy. \nBret Nestor is a computer scientist whose research focuses on machine learning for clinical time-series. He is keenly interested in the questions “What is the shelf life of an algorithm?” and “For whom does this algorithm work?”. He completed his PhD at the University of Toronto and Vector Institute under the supervision of Dr. Marzyeh Ghassemi (MIT) and Dr. Anna Goldenberg. He completed two postdoctoral positions at the University of Washington\, and Harvard University before joining the Regulatory Science Lab at the UBC School of Population and Public Health.

SUMMARY:Writing Positionality Statements from the Lens of Anti-Oppression and Anti-Racism
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, you will be introduced to key concepts\, reflective practices\, and definitions that assist in exploring identity and positionality; important tools for visioning\, creating\, and choosing stylistic choices for positionality statement writing. This work will assist you in unpacking concepts such as power and privilege and reflect on how expressions of interpersonal and systemic power and privilege operate in research and broadly\, teaching and learning. With a focus on exploring personal and research value systems that inform positionality statements\, this session will weave together theoretical and methodological approaches to assist you in engaging in deep critical reflection on their personal approaches to research and writing. \nThe workshop includes  active discussion and interactive opportunities to reflect on the necessity of positionality statements across a variety of contexts in academia\, including research publications\, syllabi\, and grant applications. By the end of session\,  you will have developed an emerging toolbox of strategies and approaches to continuously reflection of positionality and approaches to positionality writing. \nIntended Learning Outcomes \n\nReflect on one’s own positionality\, identities\, and personal and institutional power and privileges through social location exercises\nReview theoretical and methodological frameworks that can inform the shaping of a positionality statement\, specifically critical social theoretic approaches to shaping positionality statement and overall research activities\nConsider how a variety of experiences and approaches inform the development of individual positionality statements\nDevelop potential strategies on placing positionality statements for different audiences and genres\n\nPlease register to secure your spot.\nRegister

SUMMARY:Education\, Opportunity\, and the Future of Work in an Age of Smart Machines
DESCRIPTION:This talk seeks to answer the question of whether we’re entering a new age of opportunity or witnessing the end of knowledge work as we know it. Here\, I challenge the dominant narrative that today’s industrial transformation will ultimately create more and better jobs\, with education remaining the best route to social mobility and economic growth. My challenge draws on a long career of international research\, including ongoing conversations with corporate leaders and technologists. I will show how AI is being used to ‘capture’ human knowledge and redefine what it means to be educated\, skilled\, and employable. If employers continue to focus on cost-efficiency and what we call ‘cognitive capture\,’ it’s likely to accelerate the death of human capital. But technology is not destiny; there are different ways of doing things\, even if capitalism is the DNA of all industrial revolutions. This includes an urgent need to reimagine education and technology to create a fairer and more human future of work. \nThis event is open to the general public and does not require registration (but please note that our seating is limited). Coffee and tea will be served at 4:30 pm\, and the event will be followed by a reception in the Piano Lounge\, Graham House. \nThis event is co-organized with UBC Emeritus College. \nProfessor Phillip Brown was a distinguished research professor at Cardiff University\, UK\, before giving up his day job to become an emeritus professor. He spent much of his academic career studying the future of work and its relationship to education\, economy\, and society. His research has involved interviewing leading transnational companies and senior policy makers in countries including China\, Finland\, Germany\, India\, Singapore\, the United Kingdom\, and the United States. He has written\, co-authored\, and co-edited eighteen books\, including The Death of Human Capital? Its Failed Promise and How to Renew it in an Age of Disruption (2020\, Oxford University Press); The Global Auction (2011\, Oxford University Press); and over 120 academic articles and reports. Professor Brown chaired a Welsh Government Review on Digital Innovation for the Economy and the Future of Work (2019)\, and was research program director (2019-23) for Digital Futures Work. He is a fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences\, fellow of the Learned Society of Wales\, and is currently AI fellow (Future of Work) in the Ministry of Justice\, Westminster\, UK Government. He is writing a new book on AI and the futures of work.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Machine Learning: Regression Models
DESCRIPTION:This workshop focuses on regression models to provide participants with a foundational understanding of machine learning concepts\, techniques\, and tools used for linear and nonlinear regression. Through a combination of lectures and hands-on exercises\, participants will gain practical experience with regression algorithms\, one of the most popular machine-learning techniques. The workshop begins with an overview of regression\, exploring its various types and applications and continues with training regression models\, interpreting the results\, and making predictions using real-world datasets. Additionally\, participants will gain insights into advanced topics such as regularization and feature selection. By the end of this workshop\, you will have a solid understanding of regression models and be familiar with popular Python libraries and tools to implement them. \nIn this workshop\, we will use cloud-based platforms\, so you don’t need to have Python installed. Please make sure that you have a Google Colaboratory (https://colab.research.google.com/) account. This workshop will involve hands-on exercises that require the use of programming tools and libraries commonly used in machine learning\, such as Python and Scikit-learn. As such\, prior familiarity with Python programming is recommended for participants to fully benefit from the practical component of the workshop. \nSign up for other Machine Learning workshops in this series.  \nOr view other upcoming Digital Scholarship workshops. \nIf you have any questions\, concerns\, or accessibility needs please email digital.scholarship@ubc.ca. \nTo keep up-to-date with all of the workshops\, consults\, and events subscribe to the UBC Library Research Commons monthly newsletter.
