EMbeDS celebrates with an exciting workshop

The EMbeDS 2019 workshop was held on Nov 26-27, 2019 at the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies. We celebrated the first year of activity of the Department of Excellence with presentations by our new recruits, a variety of national and international scholars, and institutional and private sector stakeholders.

The program comprised 25 speakers who tackled a variety of topics including climate change and its impacts; sustainability; health care; methodological advances in modeling, computation and statistics; and legal and societal issues linked to the use of massive data and AI. 

The event was a great success – both as an occasion to exchange important ideas, and as an occasion to reinforce or establish links among different institutions and research topics. A book of abstracts (in pdf) can be downloaded on the right of this page.

Prof. Bin Yu's keynote public lecture Veridical Data Science is available on the youtube channel of the School at the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLU9lwhlAAY
