SUMMARY:Clavius Distinguished Lecture 2022: From Fracking to Film – The Importance of Informatics and Data Analytics
DESCRIPTION:Informatics has quietly become a tool that underpins nearly every aspect of our lives. In the realm of energy markets\, it helps answer questions ranging from how best to frack a well to how we keep our lights (and heat) on. And in the film industry\, which is recovering from a true “black swan” event in COVID-19\, one that rapidly distorted viewing habits\, some producers and distributors using informatics to determine when and where to release a film. Whether used to predict human behaviors or physical phenomena\, informatics and data science are perhaps the most important tools in the toolbox for ensuring quality of life. When used to prescribe or manipulate human behaviors\, they are perhaps the biggest threat. \nJoin distinguished members of the Fordham community for this conversation! A reception will follow the lecture. \nAgenda \n\nWelcome: Ann Gaylin\, Ph.D.\, dean\, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences\, Fordham University\nIntroduction: D. Frank Hsu\, Ph.D.\, Clavius Distinguished Professor of Science\, Department of Computer and Information Science\, Fordham University\nKeynote Address: Allen Gilmer\n\nAbout the Speaker\nAllen Gilmer is the founder and former CEO and chairman of Enverus\, a leading energy industry software as a service platform.
