Join us for a fireside chat with Eric Lefkofsky
<https://www.tempus.com/team_members/eric-lefkofsky/>, founder and CEO at
Tempus <https://www.tempus.com/>, and Dr. Olufunmilayo I. Olopade
<https://www.uchicagomedicine.org/find-a-physician/physician/olufunmilayo-i-olopade>,
the Walter L. Palmer Distinguished Service Professor of Medicine and Human
Genetics at the University of Chicago, as they discuss some of the most
talked-about issues at the intersection of technology, big data, and
medicine. They will focus on the potential for big data in the prediction,
prevention and early detection of cancer, the promising field of precision
therapeutics, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hear about the state of the field both in academia and industry and where
these experts see opportunities for innovation. The discussion will also
include practical advice for industry leaders, researchers, founders, and
students navigating the expanding field of precision medicine.

The conversation will be moderated by Samantha Riesenfeld
<https://pme.uchicago.edu/faculty/samantha-riesenfeld>, Assistant Professor
of Molecular Engineering and Genetic Medicine at the Pritzker School of
Molecular Engineering.


*Part of the CDAC 2021 Data & Technology Outlook Series*
Many of the data science and computational tools that revolutionized the
modern business landscape resulted from close collaborations between
industry and academia. Tomorrow’s innovations are under construction today
in R&D departments and university laboratories, where researchers develop
solutions to the most pressing data challenges across fields.

This year, the Center for Data and Computing (CDAC) at the University of
Chicago presents a series of critical conversations between industry
leaders and researchers pushing the frontiers of data science forward,
presenting and discussing new tools in artificial intelligence, data
analysis and discovery, security and privacy, that will define the next
decade of data technology in science and industry. The Outlook series will
provide a balanced understanding of the trends reshaping business and tech
with the goal of translating hype into realistic predictions.
