Listen Later

Data-mapping of the human body is the next level in the paradigm of our overall health and well-being.

With a passion for exploring technological advances across disciplines, Alexander and John from Ninja Software interview Jacqueline Alderson, Associate Professor of Biomechanics at The University of Western Australia on her work with digital twins.

As a sports scientist with over two decades working with some of Australia’s best athletes in optimising performance and injury prevention, biomechanist Jacqueline linked the convergent of data collection, machine learning, artificial intelligence to the significant application in health.

Also raised in this podcast is the ethics in the Collection, Storage and Usage of Data.

Facebook, Google, Amazon….with so much information about us easily accessible to data oligarchs, we need to continually ask the question, "Who owns the data?"
