This seminar will cover ICMR’s focus on how digital health and AI address key challenges in India’s healthcare delivery system—particularly those arising from underutilized primary care centers and overburdened tertiary hospitals. ICMR has developed over 100 national digital data systems. Building on this foundation, Dr. Singh will introduce MIDAS and MIDAS 2.0as quality frameworks for AI-ready datasets, outline integration opportunities with Harvard’s Dataverse (including differential privacy), and share a vision for automated primary health centers.

VENUE
Thompson Room, Barker Center, 12 Quincy St, Cambridge

ORGANIZER

Violence against children is pervasive, but not inevitable. It is preventable. Like pervasive diseases such as malaria and tuberculosis, we can diagnose and document violence against children, treat it and ultimately eradicate it. This topic will be the focus of a wide-ranging discussion that marks the publication of an important new book, Protecting the World’s Children: Public Health, Human Rights, Capabilities, co-edited by FXB Senior Fellow Susan Bissell and A.K. Shiva Kumar. The book includes the work of leading experts on the multi-faceted threats and violations facing today’s children. Panelists will engage with several key child protection issues and discuss solutions that demand urgent attention and action.
