Welcome to the first DSxHE's Download; our monthly informal, conversational and informative online Meetups!

These are open to anyone in the world, no matter what your level of experience and background. They are really just an opportunity to meet fellow DSxHE-ers and learn a few new things :-)

The format is the same every month and goes like:

1) Quick fire intros for all those in attendance

2) 2-4 hosts (any member of the community can host!) who present in <5 minutes a project, paper, blog, company, video or podcast on something to do with data science and health equity that they found interesting recently

3) We split into smaller hosted breakout rooms for wonderful meandering discussions in some of the themes each host covered

4) We reconvene to say goodbye until next time (and hopefully get a few volunteers to host next month's!)

This month we have the following hosts covering:

• Maxine Mackintosh, Programme Lead for Diverse Data at Genomics England and Co-founder of One HealthTech will be covering this paper in Nature on machine learning and algorithmic fairness in public and population health
• Ellen Coughlan, Programme Manager - Analytical Capability at The Health Foundation will be covering Mimi Onuoha’s installation on missing data (Why designers should embrace ‘weird data’)

• You?? (email us at maxine.mackintosh@genomicsengland.co.uk and ellen.coughlan@health.org.uk

See you there!
