Would you like to learn more about how 成人直播app academics have managed to make these connections and impact public policy? We convene a panel from a diverse range of disciplinary backgrounds who all reflect on how they managed to open the door to connections with public policy, and their experience of engaging with public policy in a range of settings.
Our panel will each introduce their research area, which includes domestic abuse, AI in the health sector, and public health interventions, then summarise how they initially made links with policy-makers and how this policy engagement has since progressed. This will be followed by a panel discussion to further explore the similarities and differences in their experiences working with public policy and any areas of interest from the audience.
Our Panel of Speakers Includes:
Dr Allan Tucker (Reader in Computer Science)
Allan leads the Intelligent Data Analysis Group at 成人直播app and has conducted and led extensive research on Artificial Intelligence, especially in healthcare and ecology settings. In this panel, Allan will focus on his involvement in advising the Medical and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) on regulating the use of AI.
Professor Subhash Pokhrel (Professor of Public Health Economics)
Subhash’s research is largely around supporting health systems to deliver efficient healthcare as well as strengthening health research systems to support more healthcare. His research has contributed to several public health policies. In this panel, he will focus on how he built relationships with policy makers on Supporting tobacco control decision making for improved health and economic productivity, which ultimately led to a REF2021 case study.
