On September 24, Dr. Fida Dankar will present her research work on synthetic data utility.
On November 13, Dr. Khaled El Emam will distill key learnings about publishing studies utilizing machine learning models.
Do you conduct research involving human participants? Are you subject to the Tri-Council Policy Statement: Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans (TCPS)? In this webinar, Hanan Abdel-Akher, Senior Policy Analyst with the Secretariat on Responsible Conduct of Research, answers these questions and more.
Synthetic data generation is an emerging approach for responsibly sharing data. Dr. Khaled El Emam reviews the use of generative models to produce synthetic real-world data and clinical trial data, along with studies evaluating the replicability of analyses using synthetic data and the privacy risks of synthetic data will. He also discusses further applications for enabling federated analysis and (selection) bias mitigation.
On April 17, Lisa Pilgram presented an example application of anonymization in the field of nephrology. The focus was on utility and attention drawn to potential pitfalls. Video and slides available.
In February 2024, Lamin Juwara joined us to discuss the results of his recently published study “An evaluation of synthetic data augmentation for mitigating covariate bias in health data” on bias mitigation techniques to correct biased datasets.
