Adeel Ansari, Knowledge Engineering Lead





Wednesday, October 28, 2020 at 9:30 to 12:30pm

Fairness and Equity Workshop: The proposed workshop will explore the ways that bias “gets baked into” our data and models at five different stages of the research cycle: 1) Research Design; 2) Data Collection; 3). Data Editing and Analysis; 4) Model Construction and Validation; 5) Knowledge Translation and Exchange.

Key objectives of this workshop are to identify potential sources of bias in our own research, and promote best practices in the field and among our peers. 

This workshop is FULL - Sign up for Nov 4!

Dr. Laura Sikstrom is a CIHR Health System Impact Fellow and Lecturer in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Toronto. Her ongoing teaching and research engages with the intersection between evidence based medicine, health equity and social justice. Her current project is an institutional ethnography of fairness at CAMH.  




Wednesday, October 28, 2020 at10 to 11:30am

Scientific Computing Working Group presents: an Introduction to R and RStudio

  • R and RStudio
  • R Markdown and reproducible research
  • Objects in R
  • R packages
  • Some statistical functions

TOPIC: Brain data: How machine learning and computation tackle mental health

TICKETSSchedule

Dr. Sean Hill, Director of the Krembil Centre for Neuroinformatics will deliver a talk on transforming mental health care through new approaches to gathering data inside and outside the clinic, providing next generation AI decision support to clinicians, and constructing multi-scale computational models that integrate genomics, cells and circuits, whole brain dynamics, cognitive networks and whole person level data.

TOPIC: Hierarchical Bayesian inference underpins human social learning

Zoom link 

Meeting ID: 896 8176 7784

Passcode: 593617

Dr Andreea Diaconescu is an Independent Scientist at the Krembil Centre for Neuroinformatics (CAMH) and Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto.
Andreea completed her PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience with Prof. Randy McIntosh at the Rotman Research Institute (University of Toronto). Following her PhD training, she held a postdoctoral position at the Translational Neuromodeling Unit (University of Zurich and ETH Zurich). Under the supervision of Prof. Klaas Enno Stephan, she developed, validated, and applied hierarchical Bayesian models of social learning and decision-making to examine persecutory ideation in early psychosis. Andreea has recently been supported by the Swiss National Foundation at the University in Basel in the Department of Psychiatry to lead a project on early detection of psychosis using computational models of persecutory delusions fit to behaviour and neuroimaging (EEG and fMRI) data.

At the Krembil Centre for Neuroinformatics, Andreea focuses on neurocomputational models of suicidal ideation in psychoaffective disorders.
