The document discusses how the roles of experts and scientific publishing are changing in an era of open science, sensors, and big data. It argues that expertise is becoming more collaborative and less hierarchical as knowledge moves faster globally. Experts will need to focus on developing hypotheses, understanding signals in data, and adapting to new requirements for delivering insights. Scientific publishers will need services that support collaborative innovation and make better use of open data and signals to build insight and discovery. They are encouraged to focus on hypothesis generation and testing over static reports and consider how to adapt their business models.

Building a Data Culture at Your Organization - Dawn of the Data Age Lecture S...Luciano Pesci, PhD
90% of all the data in existence was generated in the last 2 years and the pace is accelerating (really fast). Yet this data seems to be drowning organizations and 80% of all data projects are currently failing. This means that organizations who successfully use their data are in possession of a major competitive advantage. But it won't last, and eventually, everyone will be expected to have broad data literacy, just like the need to know how to type or making copies.
This Lecture Will:
-TEACH YOU THE STATE OF DATA TODAY WITH EXAMPLES OF FAILURE & SUCCESS
-EXPLAIN THE 4 DIFFERENT TYPES OF DATA SCIENTISTS AND THEIR TOOLS
-OUTLINE EFFECTIVE DATA SCIENCE TEAMS, ALONG WITH THEIR COST

Lifetime Value - The Only Metric That Matters (DMC September 2018)Luciano Pesci, PhD
Lifetime value (LTV) is the single most impactful metric for marketers to know since 20% of customers predictably contribute 80% of the total lifetime value. To understand this "Pareto Persona" you need to map data from every touchpoint in the customer journey, break down internal data silos, and adopt powerful frameworks like LTV for organizing & explaining data.
With lifetime value, you can optimize cost of acquisition decisions based on a persona that will have the highest satisfaction, longest lifecycle, and greatest likelihood to recommend you to their network. As a bonus, your product, sales, and customer experience teams will also benefit from knowing lifetime value, making you the hero of the day for delivering unparalleled ROI with data (possibly for the first time in your organization's history).

Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.

3. What is at issue?
The challenge of 21st century innovation
4. What is today’s SciTech challenge?
● Curation and copyright vs. innovation and interaction?
● Subscriber access vs public/open access?
● Impact ratings vs. social media “clout”?
All this, to be sure, and yet...
5. There is a broader issue in play.
● What is the value of expert insights in a global,
mobile real-time economy?
o How is that value realized through publishing?
o What forces are shaping its value in this economy
independent of publishing?
6. And huge implications if we blow it.
“Shareholder value” is not scaled to global
challenges
7. How do we get to “aha” better?
Does publishing today create value for discovery?
8. How do we monetize “aha” moments?
Is our expertise really paying off through discovery?
9. Other industries have faced this.
● What happened to financial publishing?
o Real-time insights in global markets trumped reports
o The most profitable analysis became automated
o Wide & equal access to public information sources
11. Open builds proprietary advantages.
Source: Gartner, Inc.
The competitive cost of not adapting is high
o When customers’ money is spent better they respond
12. Is scientific publishing different?
● In some ways, yes. But not as much as you think.
o Your information isn’t there when they need it most
o So your customers are finding insights anyway
o They have to if they’re going to keep up
economically
13. So what is open science really about?
● It’s about adjusting the value of publishing
o Report/data distribution value = ¢
o Moving to the next right insight ASAP = $$$$$
o Getting the right feedback at the right time = $$$$$
14. Why impact ratings won’t save you.
● Careers move too fast for them
o Tenure-track positions not as economically valuable
● Research funding moves too fast for them
o International competition in a tight economy
= money flows fast to the fastest innovation
15. Why copyright won’t save you.
● May isolate content from its most valuable contexts
o Is this information really valuable right now?
o Can I extract meaning from it later efficiently?
16. Why libraries won’t save you.
● Information professionals face same expert
challenge
o Search engines push them into collaborative roles
o Global enterprises less likely to fund collections - and
their managers - that don’t produce tangible results
17. Soooo...why am I subscribing?
● “Because you have to” is not a growth strategy
o For your clients or for their clients
● Technical fixes won’t eliminate adaptive pressures
o Expertise creates value today in new patterns
18. A new approach to expertise
Confronting the shifting role of the
expert
19. Why today’s expertise is different
● Knowledge and discovery moves fast globally
o Reputation as guaranteed insight less certain
● Pushes experts into the realm of the collaborative
o As their hierarchical, technical problem-solver role is
automated, focuses more on peer idea exploration
20. Experts moving from...

Signifying vs. storage + retrieval
31. An economy of signal-driven markets
Understand and fulfill unique demands at scale
before others even see them
...using less time, fewer resources
and more effective filtering of options
32. An economy of tailored production
Signal drives scalable micromarkets rapidly
33. How does signal change science?
● The world is modeling itself in data constantly
o Dynamic hypothesis formulation, testing & application
● Avoiding data fragmentation is key
o Public signal resources can increase research efficiency
34. What to do?
Responding to new requirements for
delivering discovery and insights
35. What to do now?
● Experts focused on collaboration need a new
generation of publishing and discovery services
o Collaborative innovators more dispersed and less likely to
have budget for collection access
o Need to address opportunities & challenges of both signal and
automated insight technologies that act on hypotheses quickly

39. Your to-do list
1. Focus on developing systems for collaborative experts
o “How can we develop good hypotheses for action more efficiently?”
o “What is data saying now?”
o “What are ‘failures’ telling us?”
2. Consider adaptive responses
o Not just technical/tactical issues
o What “DNA” is really essential to retain
o How can people & institutions adapt with integrity
3. Use open science to lower costs for collaboration
o Lower the cost of data to build ROI-driven insight services
40. A closing thought...
.”..Something can be a real failure until it’s not. It’s just an absolute dud until it’s a hit.
So you have to be able to sense those early indicators of success, and the
leadership has to really lean in and not let things die on the vine. When you have a $70
billion business, something that’s $1 million can feel irrelevant. But that $1 million
business might be the most relevant thing we are doing.”
