Speaker: Simon Harper (University of Manchester).

Abstract: We will discuss how data science can be applied to precision medicine and how this requires a different way of thinking and understanding than we typically exhibit when looking at big data.

Bio: My work is centred on understanding, predicting and influencing a user’s behaviour in the real-world and through interfaces and information, while taking into account cognitive, behavioural, perceptual and technological factors. My contributions lie in the development of adaptive user models of extreme users and/or extreme environments.
