SUMMARY:Bridge2AI Discussion Forum on Emerging ELSI Issues: “Trust Starts Upstream: Recommendations for Creating Ethically Sourced Health Data Repositories for AI/ML"
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Tuesday\, January 20th\, 2026 at 12pm-1pm PST/3pm-4pm EST for the discussion forum: “Trust Starts Upstream: Recommendations for creating ethically sourced health data repositories for AI/ML\,” by Dr. Camille Nebeker. \n\n\n\n\nCreating ethically sourced and trustworthy health data repositories is critical for building trustworthy biomedical and behavioral research infrastructure\, especially when such repositories underpin machine learning and AI systems. In Ethical sourcing in the context of health data supply chain management: a value sensitive design approach (Nebeker et al.\, 2025)\, we integrate value sensitive design (VSD) with concepts from supply chain management to operationalize ethical values across the stages of developing health data repositories. The resulting framework identifies key actors\, values (e.g.\, traceability\, security\, equity)\, and tensions that arise during repository creation and highlights practices such as documenting data provenance\, articulating expectations for data stewards\, and implementing comprehensive privacy and bias mitigation strategies. \nDuring this session\, Dr. Nebeker will provide an overview of this framework with a focus on developing a companion checklist that is grounded in VSD and supply chain scaffolding and can be used as actionable guidance in dataset creation. \n\n\n\n\nBio: \nDr. Camille Nebeker is a professor of public health with appointments in the UC San Diego Design Lab and the Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science. In 2018\, Dr. Nebeker co-founded the ReCODE Health center\, which is dedicated to conducting cutting edge research to inform ethical practices in digital/AI health research – including machine learning and the use of large language models. The ReCODE Health center supports education and consultation services to guide ethical practices in technology-supported health research across diverse research sectors including traditional academic research and\, increasingly\, the health technology sector. She’s a principal investigator with the Bridge2AI Bridge Center’s Ethical\, Legal and Social Implications Core.

His 2016 collection\, Ebola’s Message: Public Health and Medicine in the 21st Century received favorable reviews in Nature from Dr. Peter Piot\, who first identified the virus in 1976. His new book on the ethics of pandemic preparedness and response\, War on All Fronts: A Theory of Health Security Justice\, was published in May 2023. Both are available open access at The MIT Press Website. \nPrior to his appointment at the University of Massachusetts Lowell\, Dr. Evans completed postdoctoral research at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2015\, he held an Emerging Leaders in Biosecurity Initiative Fellowship at the UPMC Center for Health Security\, Baltimore; has held visiting appointments at the Universities of Exeter\, Bradford\, and Cambridge; and is a three-time Fondation Brocher resident scholar in bioethics in Hermance\, Switzerland.

SUMMARY:TRM Novel AI Technology Module Lecture: “Identifying Heterogeneous Treatment Effects using Machine Learning for Future Precision Medicine and Public Health” by Dr. Kosuke Inoue
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, March 26\, 2026\, at 12:00 PM PT/3:00 PM ET for the lecture: “Identifying Heterogeneous Treatment Effects using Machine Learning for Future Precision Medicine and Public Health” by Dr. Kosuke Inoue\, MD\, PhD. This lecture is part of the Bridge2AI Training\, Recruitment\, and Mentoring (TRM) 2025-26 Lecture Series Novel AI Technology Module. \nDr. Kosuke Inoue is a physician-epidemiologist at Kyoto University whose research focuses on clinical and cardiovascular epidemiology\, with an emphasis on statistical modeling and causal inference. Formally trained as an endocrinologist\, he has advanced training in causal inference methodologies. His research integrates causal inference frameworks with machine learning algorithms to analyze high-dimensional cohort and clinical trial data. He also applies machine learning–based heterogeneous treatment effect methods to both randomized controlled trial (RCT) and observational data to better understand variation in treatment responses and disease risk across populations. \nDr. Inoue has established a strong research record\, with 160 peer-reviewed publications\, including 95 first- or last-author papers\, over the past decade. His work has been recognized with many prestigious honors\, including the Young Scientist Award from the Ministry of Education\, Culture\, Sports\, Science and Technology of Japan (2025)\, MIT Technology Review Innovators Under 35 Japan (2023)\, the Medical Research Encouragement Prize from the Japan Medical Association (2023)\, the Young Investigator Award from the Japan Endocrine Society (2023)\, and the Encouragement Award from the Japan Epidemiological Association (2024). His work advances the integration of epidemiology\, causal inference\, and data science to support more evidence-based clinical and public health decision-making. \nLecture Learning Objectives: \n\nAssessing treatment effect heterogeneity is essential for understanding mechanisms behind average effects and identifying sub groups with higher or lower benefit.\nRecently developed machine learning methods\, including casual forests and meta-learners\, can be used for evaluating such heterogeneity.\nThe High-Benefit Approach\, an approach targeting individuals with high benefit\, has the potential to serve as a future personalized medicine strategy by efficiently allocating healthcare resources and reducing health disparities.\n\nIntroduction
