Event Description
As part of Queen's University Belfast's 180 Year Celebrations (Queen's 180), we would like to immerse you in the exciting but challenging world of data and the leading role that Queen's are playing internationally in answering some of the biggest global challenges that our planet faces through the use of data analytics, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and digital one health.
We have brought together an unrivalled panel of experts who will highlight some of the challenges they face and how their data driven solutions are making us safer, healthier, more productive and more sustainable, while respecting the need to ensure the privacy of the individual citizen and address the inequalities that our world unfortunately faces.
