Data Privacy Workshop
Friday, May 20th, 3PM in 220 HEDCO Education Building
Part of the Responsible Data Science Workshop Series
The “Responsible Data Science” series is a joint venture of the UO Data Science Initiative, Department of Philosophy, School of Law, and Oregon Health Sciences University. Each workshop in the series will focus on a different topic of concern for data-centric research environments.
Workshop #3 will be held on Friday, May 20th at 3:00p in Hedco Education Bldg Room 220. The focus will be on data privacy. We will consider a few important dimensions of privacy ethics: 1) the meanings and understandings of privacy, 2) particular toolsets, or analytics, for interrogating potential privacy biases in datasets, and 3) hands-on application of these analytics to real-world (and maybe also a few fictionalized) cases. The analytics we will consider are based on published work in Helen Nissenbaum’s 2009 book Privacy In Context (link) and the taxonomy of privacy developed by Deirdre Mulligan, Colin Koopman, and Nick Doty in their 2016 article in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A (link).
This workshop will be led and hosted by Ramón Alvarado (UO Philosophy) and Colin Koopman (UO Philosophy), with the assistance of Philosophy Ph.D. students Paul Showler, Brooke Burns, and Asher Caplan.
