| “Good data saves lives: But what are good data?”

TODAY April 10 | 3:30pm
Jordan Hall of Science Auditorium Room 105

Invited Speaker: Professor Sam Scarpino, Northeastern University

Data alone can’t solve our problems.
In fact, data often creates more problems than they solve. The way we quantify and qualify impact defines our values and what we mean by “good data.” In this talk, Professor Sam Scarpino of Northeastern University will describe how the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic highlighted longstanding issues around equity, privacy, and sovereignty, which can’t be solved by technology alone.
