EFI Planted Forests Facility Summer School, Palencia’18
Organised by iuFOR and EFI's Planted Forest Facility (formerly EFIATLANTIC)
Palencia (España)

Hosted by iuFOR ( Universidad de Valladolid & INIA) and Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenierías Agrarias, Universidad de Valladolid
Target public:
Graduate students (Masters and PhD) in forest sciences, forest geomatics or data science
Practitioners and IT staff from forest companies, administrations and R&D institutes
Target outcomes:
By the end of the course the participants will have a comprehensive overview of forest data management and analysis including relevant R skills to develop forest models at stand and tree levels and a foundation on cloud simulation of forest systems.
Rationale:
Forest management is facing different challenges due to the magnitude of the current environmental problems (climate change, invasive species, biodiversity crisis, etc.) and the growing demand for goods and services by the society.
Furthermore, the current Knowledge Society paradigm requires professionals to integrate different skills into their specific domain effectively; for example, the management of big databases, including analysis, modeling and decision making.
Although there are some local initiatives such as the DataForest MSc programme at University of Valladolid this specific type of education and training in data management and analysis is not available to forest managers and forest scientists. In general personnel involved in forest management and its environs have a good working knowledge of forest management systems and methods.
However this knowledge could be further enhanced by skills in other complimentary fields, such as database management, computer programming, data analysis, decision making through operational research techniques, geographic information systems and remote sensing.

The Promise of Data: Will this Bring a Revolution in Health Care?
(March 22 to 27, 2015)

-----
It has now become an orthodoxy that we are moving into the age of 'Big Data'. This derives from ever increasing processing power and the vast surge in connectedness - with mobile technologies at the forefront and sensors in nearly all appliances, we are set to have 50 billion devices by 2020 connected in the cloud. It is argued that medical decisions can be truly evidence based, combining the most complete medical science with personal data, drawing where appropriate on 24/7 monitoring through mobile devices and patient reported outcome measures. Lifestyle advice and preventive action can be honed with ever greater accuracy. Benefits from treatment, its best timing, lowest cost, better understood risk, and more predictable side-effects should all flow from this data transition, bringing lower costs and higher value.
Corporations are competing in both investment and rhetoric. In 2013 Google launched a new subsidiary, Calico, which Larry Page claimed would represent 'moonshot thinking around health care', and there have been many similar claims. But how is all this justified? And how can we ensure that those advances which do arise from this new control of data truly benefit patients, rather than just the provider - and that this will be a benefit distributed across the social gradient and globally?
What are the risks on the horizon? Data is often siloed and used for competitive advantage. Protocols around privacy could be tested to destruction; for instance, it is possible to reverse engineer anonymized data to identify individuals. Forbes magazine even reports a case of medical data being sold on eBay. How might these risks be best mitigated?
This session will review the claims for Big Data and its true potential, and seek to identify the conditions under which it should yield the greatest benefits to patients and populations.
