The AI Center for Health and Pandemic Preparedness at Case Western Reserve University will conduct a public hybrid workshop to explore how innovative research sparked by COVID-19 can enhance preparedness and responses to emerging infectious diseases.
Titled “Applying Lessons Learned from COVID-19 Research on Data and AI Approaches to Future Pandemic,” the workshop will be held Wednesday, May 3, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in Nord Hall, Room 356.
This workshop will focus specifically on public health data life cycles and the roles of computational solutions in pandemic surveillance, pathogen detection, forecast and prediction, pathogen and host dynamics, and evolution. This workshop also will cover how the scientific community can work more effectively with health systems, public health agencies, industrial partners, and private citizens to improve coordination and collaboration for purposes of rapid and effective responses to future infectious disease threats.
There will be a mix of interactive presentations, panel discussions and student poster sessions. Participants also will have the opportunity to network and share their experiences with other professionals in the field.
