Ferdinando Scala, Strategy Director at Razorfish Healthware, talks about how the current explosion of medical sensors and collaborative knowledge-building platforms, have made possible the rise of Crowdsourcing and BigData tendencies in healthcare. It was the opening Keynote Speech at UXCON 2013 conference, hold at USI (Università della Svizzera Italiana), Lugano, Switzerland, on October 26, 2013.
Part of the "2016 Annual Conference: Big Data, Health Law, and Bioethics" held at Harvard Law School on May 6, 2016.
This conference aimed to: (1) identify the various ways in which law and ethics intersect with the use of big data in health care and health research, particularly in the United States; (2) understand the way U.S. law (and potentially other legal systems) currently promotes or stands as an obstacle to these potential uses; (3) determine what might be learned from the legal and ethical treatment of uses of big data in other sectors and countries; and (4) examine potential solutions (industry best practices, common law, legislative, executive, domestic and international) for better use of big data in health care and health research in the U.S.
The Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School 2016 annual conference was organized in collaboration with the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University and the Health Ethics and Policy Lab, University of Zurich.

Future of Crowdsourcing: Creation to Curation, Search to Synthesis, Content t...Gaurav Mishra
Three trends are defining the future of crowdsourcing:
1. Input: From asking community members to create original contributions to curating contributions that already exist elsewhere.
2. Output: From searching for the best contributions from community members to synthesizing contributions from community members into something new.
3. Focus: From crowdsourcing content like ideas, designs or software to crowdsourcing things like money, products or services.

Modeling Electronic Health Records with Recurrent Neural NetworksJosh Patterson
Time series data is increasingly ubiquitous. This trend is especially obvious in health and wellness, with both the adoption of electronic health record (EHR) systems in hospitals and clinics and the proliferation of wearable sensors. In 2009, intensive care units in the United States treated nearly 55,000 patients per day, generating digital-health databases containing millions of individual measurements, most of those forming time series. In the first quarter of 2015 alone, over 11 million health-related wearables were shipped by vendors. Recording hundreds of measurements per day per user, these devices are fueling a health time series data explosion. As a result, we will need ever more sophisticated tools to unlock the true value of this data to improve the lives of patients worldwide.
Deep learning, specifically with recurrent neural networks (RNNs), has emerged as a central tool in a variety of complex temporal-modeling problems, such as speech recognition. However, RNNs are also among the most challenging models to work with, particularly outside the domains where they are widely applied. Josh Patterson, David Kale, and Zachary Lipton bring the open source deep learning library DL4J to bear on the challenge of analyzing clinical time series using RNNs. DL4J provides a reliable, efficient implementation of many deep learning models embedded within an enterprise-ready open source data ecosystem (e.g., Hadoop and Spark), making it well suited to complex clinical data. Josh, David, and Zachary offer an overview of deep learning and RNNs and explain how they are implemented in DL4J. They then demonstrate a workflow example that uses a pipeline based on DL4J and Canova to prepare publicly available clinical data from PhysioNet and apply the DL4J RNN.

Life Technologies' Journey to the Cloud (ENT208) | AWS re:Invent 2013Amazon Web Services
Life Technologies initially planned to build out its own data center infrastructure, but when a cost analysis revealed that by using Amazon Web Services the company would save $325,000 in hardware alone for a single new initiative, the company decided to use AWS instead. Within 6 months of adopting AWS, Life Technologies launched their Digital Hub platform in production, which now undergirds Life Technologies' entire instrumentation product suite.This immediately began to decrease their time-to-market and enhance their customers' user experience. In this session, we provide an overview of our path to the AWS cloud, with particular focus on the evaluation criteria used to make a cloud vendor decision. We also discuss the lessons learned since going into production.

Jefferson Science Fellow, Secretary’s Office of Global Food Security, Department of State
Abstract: Science and technology innovation – from the discovery of fire to electricity to computers – has allowed the creation of new and more efficient global economies. As we have developed from hunter- gathering communities, to agricultural economies, and very recently to industrial, service, and knowledge economies, some groups across the globe have been left behind financially. Looking ahead towards 2050, the employment opportunities in human computation promise to: 1) solve challenging problems and 2) simultaneously grow economically. Human computation is a computer science technique in which a machine performs its function by out-sourcing certain steps to humans. Combined with the internet of things and additive manufacturing, the greatest untapped resource of the developing world is the vastly under-utilized intellectual capacity of billions across the globe. Rather than promote development policies and programs that incrementally bring the financially impoverished through the stages of personal and economic development, this presentation will argue that a leap frog approach relying upon science and technology innovation is the path we should pursue for sustainable development.
Biography: Dr. Daniel Oerther earned his doctorate in environmental engineering from the University of Illinois. He pursued additional graduate training in microbial ecology (Marine Biology Laboratory), public health (Johns Hopkins), and public administration (Indiana). He was a member of the faculty of the University of Cincinnati from 2000-9 including one year as Head of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. Professor Oerther is currently the John A. and Susan Mathes Chair of Environmental Health Engineering at the Missouri University of Science and Technology. @DanielOerther describes himself as, “a social entrepreneur using design thinking to eliminate extreme poverty, ensure access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene, and to protect global food security and nutrition.”

Current Disruptions in Media: Earthquakes or New Openings? Stanford as CatalystMartha Russell
Across the globe, new word-of-mouth messaging methods are emerging. Many of these involve new technologies. The strategic use of media has become a game changer for both local and global businesses. Traditional media platforms are outpaced by the speed of flash movements as they unfold. Technical discoveries outpace the scientific journals available to announce them. Journalists, entertainers, academics, scientists, and citizens are experimenting with new tools and platforms for content creation, consumption and curation.
When the news about Tahir Square, or Occupy Wall Street or, more recently the Brazilian protests, hit the headlines of newspapers and magazines, they were already outdated. Documentaries were equally incapable of tracking and fully describing these movements. Traditional narratives – and the technologies used to tell them - fall short of accurately portraying the ideas and behaviors that are emerging through new modes of communication. Information travels so fast, that news is no longer "new". Ubiquitous media disintermediates traditional business ecosystems. And every company must take on roles of a media company.
The world of digital content is experiencing an explosion of innovation in both creation and consumption of media. It may well have been consumer applications that ignited the transformation, but business, enterprise and government interests have joined the party. Across the entire innovation ecosystem of media, new technologies and new uses of it by people are creating a sea change in the way people participate and in the responses they expect, Streaming coverage, both amateur and professional – both business and community, is powered by cutting edge technology in combinations of smartphones, 4G, drone cameras and, even, Google Glass can report on events and movements, products and services. The new role of the Chief Digital Officer has emerged in many organizations - to help management bridge the changing roles usually played by Chief Information Officers, Chief Marketing Officers, and Chief Technology Officers.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
