Tempest van Schaik PhD

Honoured to have been shortlisted as Data Leader of the Year, in the Women In IT Awards London. Congrats to all the brilliant women who were nominated, and to Jackie Shears from @NHSDigital for her very well deserved win! The NHS needs data leaders like her! @womeninitawards

Nice @MSFTResearch paper on good evaluation practices for LLM generated summaries. They suggest data-driven prompt engineering: dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.114… @Dr_Tempest

@Abebab @Abebab this is epic 😅❤️!!!

this hair is never coming off

🙌🏾🙏🏾❤️

I’m so excited for each & every attendee of @DeepIndaba #DLIndaba2022, enjoy this wonderful opportunity! Sorry to not be part of it this year my friends 😘

@mathwis_emily @liza_p_semenova Such an amazing community of organizers 😍

@liza_p_semenova full credits 🙌

@kbeguir from @instadeepai, which raised $100m series B funding this year + is in top 100 startups, has the dedication, enthusiasm and humbleness to teach us the math fundamentals of ML on day 0 of @DeepIndaba due to an unfortunate missed flight. See you soon @liza_p_semenova ☺️

@worlduniranking Why is it that in America, I get a blank look if I reply that I studied at Imperial? ETH, UCL & the other stellar EU universities similarly unknown, even by postgrad US students who are exceptionally well informed about US university rankings 🤷🏻‍♀️

@siminyu_kat @techreview Well deserved recognition for an extraordinary person!

Some News!!! I made the 2022 @techreview 35 under 35 list, imagine that. 🙈😇🥳 Building communities is my superpower; and working with the African AI community on alternative futures is my chosen reality. 1/

Donate now to send African students to the Deep Learning Indaba 2022! A chance to attend this amazing conference can be life changing @DeepIndaba givengain.com/cc/indaba-trav…

"One study suggests that 60% of a patient’s healthcare outcome is driven by their behavior and social and economic factors, 10% by their clinical care, and 30% by their genetics." forbes.com/sites/forbeste…

Microsoft Research PhD Fellowships application deadline 7 June! For students enrolled in global PhDs -including Africa - topics aligned with Microsoft's research including AI, Health, HCI, Race&Tech, Mixed Reality, Sustainability @MSFTResearch microsoft.com/en-us/research…

In more Health AI news, the MIT-Harvard @broadinstitute & Microsoft have launched a new collaboration to help life science researchers and clinicians with the next generation of scalable ML <3 broadinstitute.org/news/broad-ins… #healthAI #Ai4health #ML4Health

Exciting to see Microsoft & Nuance Health partner up to use AI to try to alleviate clinician burnout, improve patient outcomes & personalize the patient experience cloudblogs.microsoft.com/industry-blog/… #healthAI #ML4health

Wonderful to see a new Google engineering office in Kenya! Nairobi is looking like quite the tech hub 👀 techcrunch.com/2022/04/19/goo…

@chrissyfarr There was a paper about this… in Nature I think? The number of fda approved "true” AI products is very small, less than 20?? I will try to find the paper…

What percentage of health tech companies that say they're using AI/ML actually are? Or are using it to the extent they say they are?

Hello Twitter friends! I am back after a hiatus. I look forward to reconnecting about ML for health, responsible AI, women in tech, African tech, biomedical engineering... & following the latest scandals in academia😅🍿

@bronder Ha ha! I love that 😅

Unearthed my vintage neural network notes from 13 years ago when “AI” was distinctly uncool 🧐

Artificial retina is what inspired me to be a biomedical engineer. Here we see the dark side & the human cost of biomedical companies going under. It highlights our responsibility for maintenance of technology: spectrum.ieee.org/bionic-eye-obs… #biomedicalengineering
