2024 Nursing Knowledge: Big Data Science Conference

Big Data 2024

 

Welcome to the 2024 Nursing Knowledge: Big Data Science Conference!

The Nursing Knowledge Big Data Science Conference brings together nurse leaders and informaticists from public and private institutions and organizations across the United States and beyond to discuss the improvement of health and healthcare by using nursing knowledge empowered by informatics. This year, the conference will explore artificial intelligence, nursing innovations, and the social/ethical implications of using technologies for nursing care.

Along with the year-round efforts of the NKBDS Initiative’s workgroups, the conference’s mission is to generate and enable nursing insights and evidence to support individuals, families, communities, and populations in the promotion of health and the delivery of health care and to leverage informatics and data to redefine and magnify the value of nursing in all settings. Make your plans to join us June 5-7.

We invite you to also join the Planting Seeds of Innovation Colloquium, June 4, 2024.  

Location:  McNamara Alumni Center on the campus of the University of Minnesota.  Directions and parking information can be found on the McNamara website.

Thursday’s Keynote:  AI, Your Social Mirror to Your Data, Your Digital Twin is in the Data

Peter Klein
Chairman at Educated Change
University of Minnesota School of Nursing Dean’s Board of Visitors
University of Minnesota School of Nursing Initiative Ethical Use of AI in Nursing Steering Committee

Artificial Intelligence (AI) acts as a social mirror to humanity, reflecting our collective thoughts, behaviors, and tendencies. This presentation delves into this fascinating intersection of AI and human behavior. This exploration is particularly pertinent to nursing informatics, where understanding human behavior and predicting outcomes through digital interaction is paramount.

The core of the discussion hinges on how AI, especially through Large Language Models (LLMs), mirrors humanity. The extensive use of social media and digital interactions in training these AI systems has created a feedback loop where AI learns from human inputs and reflects our collective psyche back to us. This reflection is not just a mere echo but an analytical mirror that offers insights into our behaviors, preferences, and even future actions. How can we use these insights to create a better world? The presentation will introduce free, innovative tools designed to build digital twins and facilitate mindset changes among healthcare professionals, aiding in the integration of AI in their practice. It discusses methods to embrace a growth mindset, which is crucial for leveraging AI's potential in nursing and change in general.

The core result expected is a deeper understanding among nurse informaticists of how AI can be a transformative tool in healthcare, particularly in personalized patient care. The discussion will reveal how AI's predictive capabilities, harnessed through understanding individual purposes, can lead to more accurate and effective healthcare solutions. The presentation concludes by highlighting the importance of embracing new digital  technologies and mindsets in nursing informatics, ultimately leading to improved healthcare outcomes.

The intersection of AI, ethics, and innovation is complex and multifaceted. The discernment of this intersection and articulation of goals for nursing, health care, and humanity, and next steps for impact are critical. While AI technologies are rapidly offering unprecedented opportunities for innovation across nursing and health care, the need for integration into society with bold attention to the ethical concerns and their impact on individuals, communities, and the environment are paramount. Guidelines and frameworks that encompass AI and innovations that address humanity and fairness, transparency, accountability, privacy, and bias mitigation are needed. This panel will discuss the role of stakeholders, including governments, health care and nursing leaders, researchers, and civil society, in shaping policies that include the importance of integrating ethics into the innovation process to foster the responsible and sustainable advancement of AI technologies for the betterment of society.
