This symposium explores how experts from different fields—ethics, data science, informatics, and epidemiology—work together to make sure health data are used responsibly. We will discuss real-world challenges like protecting people’s privacy, getting consent before using personal data, and ensuring that health decisions are fair for all communities, especially those who have been—and continue to be—underrepresented, underprivileged, or underserved (the "triple Us").
