The ICPSR Summer Program would like to invite you to join us for the
following free Blalock Lecture tonight!

*Abstract: *Data science technology promises to improve people's lives,
accelerate scientific discovery and innovation, and bring about positive
societal change. Yet, if not used responsibly, this same technology can
reinforce inequity, limit accountability, and infringe on the privacy of
individuals. In this talk by Julia Stoyanovich, she will discuss
recent technical work in scope of the "Data, Responsibly" project. The goal
of this project is to establish a foundational new role for database
technology, in which managing data in accordance with ethical and moral
norms, and legal and policy considerations becomes a core system
requirement. Julia will connect our technical insights on fairness,
diversity, transparency, and data protection to ongoing regulatory efforts
in the US and elsewhere. Additional information about the project is
available at https://dataresponsibly.github.io

Julia Stoyanovich is an Assistant Professor at New York University in the
Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Tandon School of
Engineering, and the Center for Data Science. Julia's research focuses on
responsible data management and analysis practices: on operationalizing
fairness, diversity, transparency, and data protection in all stages of the
data acquisition and processing lifecycle. She established the Data,
Responsibly consortium
<https://umich.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4de0acf23f8cd9a943b256ebd&id=b646f96c67&e=ededa6b4a8>,
and served on the New York City Automated Decision Systems Task Force, by
appointment from Mayor de Blasio. Julia developed and is teaching courses
on Responsible Data Science at NYU
<https://umich.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4de0acf23f8cd9a943b256ebd&id=d6d828899d&e=ededa6b4a8>.
In addition to data ethics, Julia works on management and analysis of
preference data, and on querying large evolving graphs. She holds M.S. and
Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science from Columbia University, and a B.S. in
Computer Science and in Mathematics and Statistics from the University of
Massachusetts at Amherst. Julia's work has been funded by the NSF, BSF and
by industry. She is a recipient of an NSF CAREER award and of an NSF/CRA CI
Fellowship.

The Blalock Lecture Series is an integral part of the ICPSR Summer Program
in Quantitative Methods of Social Research. The Blalock Lecture
Series features presentations by respected researchers on topics of
interest to the social science community, including advanced quantitative
methods and diversity, equity, and inclusion. They are presented from 7:30
to 9 p.m. EDT outside of the regular Summer Program curriculum. The lecture
series is held in honor of Tad Blalock
