    Academic Data Hubs in the Era of Cloud and AI
    Aug. 1, 12:00-1:00 PM ET
    Register

    Description:
    This webinar was originally presented as a session at the recent IT in Academic Medicine Conference, sponsored by the Group on Information Resources(GIR). The NYU Grossman School of Medicine is harnessing the power of cloud technologies, AI, and large language models (LLMs) to build Academic Data Hubs that centralize institutional data, establish robust data governance, and advance analytics capabilities. These data hubs—focused on education, faculty, and research administration—enable precision medical education, curriculum quality monitoring, and the optimization of workflows across key research and education domains. Leveraging the cloud platform, these hubs will integrate AI/Machine Learning and self-service analytics to drive actionable insights. In this session, we will present our strategy, design, and real-world use cases to illustrate the transformative potential of curated data hubs.

    Speakers:

    • Peter Ludlow, MPhys, MEM, PMP, Associate Director, Solutions Development, NYU Langone Health
    • Marina Marin, MSc, Director, Division of Academic Analytics, NYU Langone Health

    Leveraging AI to Enhance Effectiveness in Administration, Analytics, and Leadership
    Sept. 25, 1:00-2:00 PM ET
    Register

    Description:
    This session will highlight key AI use cases aimed at streamlining administrative and operational tasks. First, we will describe the development of DOMINIQ (Department of Medicine’s Interactive Navigator for Inquiries & Queries), a secure chatbot that simplifies access to policies in finance, HR, academic affairs, IT, and more. Next, we will examine how workflows in research administration, clinical revenue, and faculty productivity can be improved by applying AI to Python scripting, complex Excel formulas, and MS Power Automate. Lastly, we will delve into an innovative use case where leaders engage in reflective dialogue with GPT models to enhance their interpersonal communication skills. Overall, this session will provide practical insights into how AI can drive productivity and improvements across various operational areas. This topic was previously presented at the recent Group on Business Affairs (GBA) and Group on Institutional Planning (GIP) Joint Spring Meeting.
