DESCRIPTION:Title: Relative maternal protection against type 1 diabetes\r\n\r\nSpeakerDr Lowri Allen\, Cardiff University\, Wales\, United KingdomAbstract&\;nbsp\;Type 1 diabetes is a multifactorial disease with a strong genetic component.&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;Individuals with an affected first-degree relative are at 8-15 times higher risk of type 1 diabetes as compared with the background population.&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;However\, the risk is lower (around half) if the affected first-degree relative is the mother rather than the father or sibling.&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;Whilst this phenomenon of so called relative maternal protection against type 1 diabetes in offspring is well established in the field of type 1 diabetes\, the mechanism underpinning this phenomenon is not understood.&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;I will present an overview of the research I have undertaken during my PhD\, which aims to further our understanding of the extent of this relative maternal protection\, and to gain novel insights into the underlying mechanism.Host: Viktor Ahlqvist\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the

Fairness: A Complexity Science Perspective\r\n\r\n\r\nAbstractAlgorithmic fairness is usually discussed as a technical property\, e.g.\, a metric to optimize or a bias to correct. In this talk\, I will argue that algorithmic fairness is better understood as a systems problem. In healthcare algorithms\, for example\, clinical risk scores or AI models\, bias can emerge through the interaction of at least four levels: the social structures that generate inequities\, the data that captures these inequities\, the algorithms trained on that data\, and the healthcare institutions that deploy and act on algorithmic outputs. A complexity science lens\, attentive to feedback loops\, emergence\, and dependency across these levels\, offers epidemiologists a more accurate vocabulary for work than fairness metrics alone. This talk introduces what fairness and bias mean across the social\, data\, algorithmic\, and institutional levels\, and helps the audience begin engaging with these challenges as systemic ones.60 mins including questionsWelcome also to a workshop this afternoon with Tibor Varga.

This workshop will offer some practical tools to participants related to bias and fairness of healthcare algorithms. In small groups\, participants will map how bias enters and compounds across the social\, data\, algorithmic\, and institutional levels of a healthcare algorithm\, followed by plenary discussions. Relevant readings will be circulated in advance.3 x 45 minutesPlease note that there will be some overlap between this workshop and the seminar in the morning with Tibor Varga. We recommend that early career researchers prioritize the workshop\, and faculty prioritize the talk.
