Dr. Manish Parashar is the Director of the University of Utah’s Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute, Chair in Computational Science and Engineering, and Presidential Professor at the Kalhert School of Computing. He will deliver a keynote entitled Democratizing Access to Science Data at this year’s workshop.
Data is integral to the scientific process and is a key enabler of innovations and discoveries across all disciplines. It is essential to addressing important scientific and societal grand challenges, especially given the increasing use of AI/ML. As a result, open and equitable access to this data is more important than ever. This talk will discuss the importance and urgency of open and equitable data access and explores some of the barriers and challenges to such access. It then introduces the vision and architecture of the National Data Platform project, as part of a broader national cyberinfrastructure, aimed at catalyzing an open, equitable and extensible data ecosystem, and highlights key use cases.
