Our Guiding Ideas
Machine learning education for all
Everyone can be impacted by the use of machine learning in healthcare and public health contexts; therefore, everyone is entitled to information about how these methods function.
Transparency in health-related automation
Disclosures that enable transparency in model and dataset reporting are necessary in mitigating health disparities resulting from over-reliance on unchecked automation in healthcare and public health contexts.
Information as a public good
Information that serves to benefit the public is a public good.
