"Troubleshooting is a systematic approach designed to correct problems that may occur with patient samples, instruments, operating an analyzer, handling, reagents and quality control material. The first step in troubleshooting is gathering information about an incident. This could be, for example, undesired behavior of an instrument or the lack of an intended function. Other important information includes concurrent symptoms and specific circumstances that may be needed to reproduce the problem. ... Read More

"We are at a crucial moment in human history, when we are automating and offloading to machines the one key asset that has brought our tremendous success so far: our intelligence. At this point, to ask “What could possibly go wrong?” is obviously a rhetorical question. The speaker will explain why he thinks aspects of AI risk can properly be framed as a global environmental problem. But there is also hope, and he will discuss how we might get our act together and steer towards a long and flo ... Read More
