Panel on data-driven health
By combining fine-grained, ubiquitous monitoring of human behavior
with standard medical data and genomic data, we are taking the first
steps towards an holistic understanding of diseases processes. In this
panel, experts on predictive medicine, epidemic modeling and
computational health will discuss the impact of the data revolution
for physical and mental health, the business impact on healthcare
systems and insurance companies, and the privacy and ethical issues
raised by managing health personal data.

Panel on data-driven cities and government
Cities are essential crucibles for innovation, tolerance, novelty, and
economic prosperity, but they also face challenges in terms of, for
example, tra ffic, polluti on, poverty, and criminality. In this
panel, experts will discuss data-driven approaches to model human
mobility, to predict crime and poverty levels of urban areas, and to
design evidence-based policies to fight crime, reduce traffic and
build liveable, sustainable and resilient cities.
