SUMMARY:Health UPdates Webinar #253 (TB Screening in the Bigger Picture: "High Tech Na\, Mabilis Pa!")
DESCRIPTION:The University of the Philippines\,\nin partnership with the UP Manila – National Institutes of Health\,\nand in cooperation with UP Philippine General Hospital and UP College of Medicine\,\nwould like to invite you to attend this webinar! \n  \nRegistration slots are limited to this HEALTH UPDATES webinar\nSo sign up NOW:\nbit.ly/HealthUpdatesWebinar253 \n  \nWebinar #253\nAugust 29\, 2025 (Friday)\, 12:00 noon\nTB Screening in the Bigger Picture\nHigh Tech Na\, Mabilis Pa!\n\nPresenter:\nDR. CAMILO C. ROA\, Jr.\nPresident\, Philippine Tuberculosis Society Inc.\nFounding Chairman\, Philippine Coalition Against Tuberculosis\nProfessor Emeritus\, University of the Philippines Manila\n\nReactor:\nDR. LENORA C. Fernandez\nPast President\, Philippine College of Chest Physicians\nHead\, UP-PGH Stop Smoking Program\nProfessor and Chief\, Division of Pulmonary Medicine\nUP College of Medicine and Philippine General Hospital\nProject Leader\, Updates on Philippine Smoking Cessation Guidelines\, DOH\nMember\, Guideline Development Group on Smoking Cessation\, WHO\n\n———————————————————–\n\nWebinar #253\nAugust 29\, 2025 (Friday)\, 12:00 noon\nTB Screening in the Bigger Picture\nHigh Tech Na\, Mabilis Pa!\n\nIn an era defined by unprecedented technological advancement\, the global fight against tuberculosis (TB) is undergoing a paradigm shift that is moving beyond conventional diagnostics to one that embraces cutting-edge innovations. This imperative is driven by the persistent challenge of early case detection\, which remains a cornerstone of effective disease control and prevention strategies worldwide.\n\nIn this week’s episode\, we will explore the scientific underpinnings and practical applications of artificial intelligence in analyzing chest radiographs\, a process known as computer-aided detection (CAD). We will unpack how deep learning algorithms can rapidly and accurately triage individuals by identifying subtle radiological anomalies indicative of pulmonary TB\, thereby significantly augmenting the diagnostic capacity of healthcare systems\, particularly in high-burden\, resource-constrained environments. The discussion will also illuminate the integration of digital health interventions and mobile health (mHealth) platforms\, which extend the reach of screening programs into underserved communities. We will examine how these digital ecosystems facilitate real-time data collection\, enable contact tracing\, and support patient engagement through sophisticated applications and remote monitoring tools\, moving toward a more proactive and decentralized model of public health.\n\nWe will also provide a comprehensive overview of how these technological synergies are enhancing diagnostic precision by optimizing workflow efficiency for frontline practitioners and reducing the time-to-treatment initiation. We will also address the critical considerations of data privacy\, interoperability\, and the ethical implementation of AI to help ensure that these powerful tools are leveraged responsibly to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and the World Health Organization’s (WHO) End TB Strategy targets.\n\nOur main presenter is Dr. Camilo C. Roa\, Jr.\, who is the President of the Philippine Tuberculosis Society Inc.. He is also the Founding Chairman of the Philippine Coalition Against Tuberculosis and is Professor Emeritus at the University of the Philippines Manila. Our reactor is Dr. Lenora C. Fernandez\, who is a past President of the Philippine College of Chest Physicians and is the Head of the UP-PGH Stop Smoking Program. She also serves as Professor and Chief of the Division of Pulmonary Medicine at the UP College of Medicine and Philippine General Hospital. She is also the Project Leader of the DOH-sponsored project on Updates on Philippine Smoking Cessation Guidelines\, as well as a member of the WHO Guideline Development Group on Smoking Cessation.\n\nJoin us to discover how these disruptive technologies are paving the way for a future where TB is not just treated\, but systematically eradicated. Together\, we can stop preventable deaths!

SUMMARY:On Local Ecologies: Artist Roundtable on Exhibiting ‘Art and Ecology’ in / for / from a University
DESCRIPTION:Sa darating na Agosto 26\, samahan ang mga lumikha ng mga instalasyong naging bahagi ng Kalikhasan: Outdoor Art Projects on Campus Ecology sa On Local Ecologies: Artist Roundtable on Exhibiting ‘Art and Ecology’ in / for / from a University. 🫴🏻🌱\n\n📆Agosto 26 (Martes)\, 1:00-3:00 PM\n📍Pilar Herrera Hall\, Palma Hall\, UP Diliman\n\nPakinggan sina Dayang Yraola\, Karl Castro\, at Isola Tong sa isang makabuluhang diskusyon tungkol sa pagbuo ng eksibit na tumutugon sa mga isyung pang-kalikasan at ekolohikal sa ating Unibersidad. Kasama rin sa diskusyon si Kat. Prop. Mark Louie Lugue\, ang co-curator ng Kalikhasan project\, bilang tagapagpadaloy ng programa.\n\n// Roundtable Abstract:\n\nIn the country\, earlier attempts at exhibiting art guided by ecological consciousness can be traced back to the 1970s\, a period that witnessed a notable growth in environmentalism. Around half a century forward\, more art exhibitions led and hosted locally have sought to tease out and underscore the ties between art and ecology. These tapped on the potential of art in surfacing the impact of humanity on the environment and in raising climate awareness. In the same vein\, institutions and other groups began to examine or further reexamined their ways of working in response to the challenges of environmental sustainability.\n\nThis roundtable finds its position within this landscape by asking: What is added when we forward art as a proposition to ecological discourses through an exhibition situated in\, for\, and/or from a university? The University is a setting that is poised to offer a compelling perspective and starting point given its potential to be a progressive site of knowledge co-production despite inherent contradictions presented by the bureaucracies and conventions it tends to maintain as an institution. This potential rests in how the institution can flesh out and engender intergenerational exchanges and collaborations amongst its diverse disciplinal grounds and communities. More specifically\, the session asks: What can the unique contours of the University of the Philippines Diliman—its institutional history\, physical environment\, communities\, legacies\, and present affairs—contribute to these ongoing conversations?\n\nDrawing from the idea of “local ecologies\,” the forum shall see the university as both a microcosm intrinsically linked with broader environmental systems\, and a distinct ecosystem in its own right. Taking this as a frame for understanding the UPD community\, the forum brings together artists Dayang Yraola\, Karl Castro\, and Isola Tong\, who recently participated in the exhibition “Kalikhasan: Outdoor Art Projects on Campus Ecology” that ran from February to June this year. It offers an opportunity to reflect on the experience of conceiving and mounting outdoor and site-specific artworks that resonate with ecological discourses within and beyond the university\, as they intersected with longstanding conversations on politics\, class\, and gender.\n—\nAng Kalikhasan ay bahagi ng UP Diliman Arts and Culture Festival 2025 (UPDACF 2025) na may temang “Kalahok sa Nagbabagong Kalikasan”.

SUMMARY:“The Next Generation of Builders: Empowering Youth to Create Bias-Aware AI”
DESCRIPTION:Join UP ISC for a webinar on “The Next Generation of Builders: Empowering Youth to Create Bias-Aware AI” with Dr. Charibeth K. Cheng\, Associate Dean of the College of Computer Studies and Senior Researcher at the Center for Language Technologies of De La Salle University.\n\nWith the rise in popularity of Large Language Models (LLMs)\, boundless opportunities for innovation are within the grasps of many individuals; however\, this power comes with a challenge – the biases within these models. This talk will illustrate how systems trained on unrepresentative datasets can struggle with cultural and linguistic nuance.\n\nBeyond identifying the issue at hand\, solutions for this problem will also be discussed. This talk will show a practical path to mitigating bias and creating more reliable and trustworthy systems by demonstrating how AI agents can be designed to “act” with a “cultural compass” using custom tools and intelligent planning.\n\n🗓 Date: 18 August 2025 (Monday)\n🕒 Time: 3:00 PM PHT\n💻 Via Zoom\n\nThis is a free event. Attendees will receive a certificate of participation after the completion of the evaluation form post event.\n\nRegistration Link: https://tinyurl.com/UPISCWebinarQ3-05\n\nSource: University of the Philippines Intelligent Systems Center Facebook
