The main objective of the CAnD3 Training Program is t o upskill Fellows' abilities in population data science and computational population social science so that they can support and make evidence-infor med decisions in their respective fields. The Alumni featured in this sess ion will speak on their CAnD3 experience and how they have applied the ski lls gained from the program to contribute to data-driven decision-making i n academia and in the private and public sectors. \n\n\nItinerary \n\n12:3 0 - 12:35 | Welcome and introductions\n 12:35 - 13:15 | Panel session  \n 13 :15 - 13:25 | Moderated Q&A session \n 13:25 - 13:30 | Closing and upcoming sessions \n\nLocation\n\nThis is an online webinar hosted on Zoom.

Clara’s doctoral research examines intersection al social inequalities in aging in place in Quebec and explores the role o f access to primary care and social support in shaping these inequalities. At the SE Research Centre\, Clara develops a methodology to evaluate the alignment between the classification system for care and health human reso urce needs of older adults in traditional home care and newer care approac hes being used in transitional care programs. Clara’s research interests l ie at the intersection of social epidemiology and health equity\, with a p articular focus on understanding how health systems and policies influence the health of marginalized populations. Her professional goal is to contr ibute to the design\, implementation\, and evaluation of evidence-informed health and social policies.\n\n\nTyler Bruefach\n\n2021-2022 CAnD3 Alum\n \n\n\nTyler Bruefach earned his doctorate in Sociology at Florida State Un iversity and currently works as a data scientist for Knowli Data Science.  Through his work with Knowli and in collaboration with Florida State Unive rsity\, Tyler aims to improve how we use data to inform decisions within o rganizations and institutions. With Knowli Data Science\, Tyler has collab orated with organizations from various sectors to 1) leverage empirical da ta in their decision-making process\; and 2) improve the systems through w hich they can interpret these data. Some of the organizations Tyler has co llaborated with include government agencies on the local and state level\, hospital systems\, and local nonprofits.\n \n Tyler's academic research exa mines how early life experiences\, statuses\, and resources shape health a nd well-being over the life course. His recent work highlights the pathway s through which early-life circumstances shape future health and well-bein g\, including childhood socioeconomic (dis)advantage\, education\, and dis ability.\n\n\nSakeef Karim\n\n2020-2021 CAnD3 Alum \n\n\n\nSakeef Karim is a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow at New York University. He completed a PhD in Sociology at ºÃÉ«TV\, an MA in Sociology at McMaster Universit y\, and an HBSc in Psychology at the University of Toronto. As a researche r\, Sakeef relies on a range of quantitative and computational instruments to study social\, political and cultural phenomena in comparative perspec tive. These phenomena include\, but are not limited to\, ethnic identifica tion and cultural transmission among immigrants and the links between demo cracy\, populism and nationalism in the modern world. Sakeef is also a Dat a Science Instructor at CAnD3\, and facilitates the quantitative skills-bu ilding modules of the Population Analytics in an Aging Society Training Pr ogram. \n\n\nJulia Nakamura \n\n2021-2022 CAnD3 Alum\n\n\n\nJulia Nakamura is a first-year doctoral student in the Health Psychology program at the University of British Columbia. She received her Master’s in Health Psycho logy from the University of British Columbia in 2022\, and her Bachelor of Science in Psychobiology (minor Gerontology) from the University of Calif ornia\, Los Angeles in 2020. Julia’s overarching goal is to build a progra m of research that informs policy and intervention work to improve the psy chological\, behavioral\, and physical health and well-being of our rapidl y aging population. She integrates theories and perspectives from health p sychology\, epidemiology\, gerontology\, biostatistics\, and translational science to identify\, understand\, and intervene upon the dimensions of p sychological well-being (e.g.\, purpose in life) and prosocial behaviors ( e.g.\, volunteering) that reduce the risk of age-related physical health c onditions.\n\n\nWhat are Connect2Learn's?\n\nOur Connect2Learn series is d esigned to facilitate interdisciplinary and intersectoral learning and exc hange among all CAnD3 members\, including researchers from population rese arch fields in universities in Canada\, the U.S.\, the U.K.\, and Germany\ , Canadian partners from the public\, private and not-for-profit sectors\, and CAnD3 Fellows.\n\n\nCAnD3 Newsletters\n\nSign up for our newsletter t o keep up to date with CAnD3 events.\n DTSTART:20230906T163000Z DTEND:20230906T173000Z LOCATION:CA\, QC\, Online via Zoom SUMMARY:From Training to Data-Driven Decision-Making: CAnD3 Alumni Showcase URL:/cand3/channels/event/training-data-driven-decisio n-making-cand3-alumni-showcase-349428 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
