Commit2Data at ICT.OPEN 2022
After a hiatus caused by the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, we finally had the option of meeting each other again at ICT.OPEN in Amsterdam. We, unfortunately, had to cancel our workshop 'Turn your science into reality on the first day.
On Thursday we facilitated a barista that made freshly brewed coffee for all and an area to meet other researchers and companies present. The Commit2Coffee was well received and we have had a good time seeing and talking to many seasoned and aspiring big data researchers.
We hope our Commit2Coffee has kept energy levels up to absorb all the lessons from the many presentations and talks.
Until next time!
Looking back
All plenary sessions of 7 April are now available on the ICT.OPEN platform for three months.

All projects are below
Active4Life; optimization of use and effects of eHealth
Regular physical activity (PA) reduces the risks of multiple health problems among all age groups, also when health problems are already present. This project aims to generate new scientific and practical knowledge and insights relevant to stimulate and maintain PA in different subpopulations of adults (adults, older adults, healthy and patient populations) using innovative online interventions. We explicitly focus on vulnerable populations, such as people with low education, low digital and health skills ((e-)health literacy), as they are most deprived with regard to both their health as well as their PA.
Accelerating Mass Personalization in Orthopedics facilitated by Machine Learning and Bone MRI-based Digital Fabrication.
This project aims at development of personalized implants to improved accuracy of reconstructive surgery. A crucial prerequisite for successful application of digital fabrication in orthopedics is the availability of accurate 3D information of structure and function of the bone and surrounding soft tissue. Recent advancements in quantitative MRI and machine learning enable characterization of both soft tissue and bone in terms of structure, type and function.
Accelerating Astronomical Applications
FPGAs are processors that work very differently from the CPUs we are used to in ordinary computers. CPUs execute instructions (software) to perform a certain task; the hardware is fixed but the software offers a high degree of flexibility to perform all kinds of tasks.
