Call for Participation: Posters for the April 24 Duke Health Data Science Showcase

The Health Data Science poster showcase will be held on Monday, April 24 from 12:00-2:00 PM in-person in the Mary Duke Biddle Trent Semans Center for Medical Education (Trent Semans). We’re excited that this cross-disciplinary event will be hosted by multiple organizations, including Duke AI Health, the Laboratory for Transformative Administration, and the Center for Computational Thinking.

We invite any member of the Duke community to propose a poster entry for participation in this event, including students, trainees, staff, and faculty. This experience is intended to be especially valuable to individuals seeking to gain experience in presenting their work in front of a scientific audience, and the poster itself can become a valuable part of an academic portfolio.

Submit your poster topic at: https://duke.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1HuvnGKOY4YMa9w

The preferred deadline for poster topics to be submitted is Monday, March 13, 2023 by 11:59 PM (Eastern time).

Update on March 10: We’ve heard from several people that their research is ongoing, and we’ve decided to accept poster topics on an rolling basis, to allow everyone the full opportunity to participate.

Poster topics must be centered around health data science, but can cover a wide range of potential topics, such as statistics, informatics, machine learning, data engineering, implementation, process engineering, technology development, or applications. We especially encourage submissions describing experiences with Duke data sources. Student posters describing class projects (at both the undergraduate and graduate levels) are also encouraged.

After you submit your topic, you’ll then receive a poster template with the correct dimensions.

You’ll need to submit your finalized poster by Friday, April 14 in order to have it printed. If your poster is accepted, the event organizers will print it for you and you will have no cost to participate. The showcase will include poster judging, with recognitions including best poster.

We’re excited to do another poster session after the very successful December event, and we invite you to join us! Please email aihealth@duke.edu if you have any questions.
