Presentation of The Australian Companion Animal Registry of Cancers (ACARCinom) https://dresa.org.au/materials/presentation-of-the-australian-companion-animal-registry-of-cancers-acarcinom With support from the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) through the Australian Data Partnership program, ACARCinom is the first Australia-wide registry of animal cancer occurrences that addresses the gaps in veterinary cancer data registries. ACARCinom aims to make a positive impact on cancer research for our pets. Having reliable data is crucial for understanding the patterns of cancer and for evaluating treatments in both animals and humans. Five university veterinary schools and Australia's 2 leading veterinary pathology providers are partnering in the ACARCinom project: The University of Queensland, Queensland University of Technology, University of Sydney, Gribbles Veterinary Pathology, IDEXX, University of Adelaide, Murdoch University By uniting the expertise and resources of these institutions, ACARCinom is poised to make significant advancements in understanding and combating cancer in dogs and cats. This project represents a remarkable collaboration that harnesses the power of data to unlock new insights and drive progress in the field of veterinary oncology. This video explains how the ACARCinom Dashboard works and what its functionalities are.

Fluoroquinolone antibiotics and Aortic Aneurysm or Dissection  https://dresa.org.au/materials/fluoroquinolone-antibiotics-and-aortic-aneurysm-or-dissection The main objective of this project was to provide education on the use of data translated to the OMOP common data model. We aimed to showcase how the Atlas interface tool could be used to generate evidence for a highly relevant and significant research question. The clinical question that was used to demonstrate the process revolved around investigating the potential association between the use of fluoroquinolones to treat urinary tract infection and the risk of experiencing aortic aneurysm and dissection within 30 days, 3 months, or 12 months of treatment initiation compared to other commonly used antibiotics. The workshop aimed to describe how data are translated to the OMOP CDM, how cohorts can be derived in these data, how to execute a robust analysis, and lastly, how to interpret the results of the study. Specifically, we described the process of translating Australian medicines dispensing data to the OMOP CDM, including the translation of the Australia Pharmaceutical Benefits Schedule data to the international RxNorm standard vocabulary. The outcome of the project is an on-line training resource that highlights the process of study execution from start to finish. This training package will serve as an exemplar for researchers in Australia to unlock the value of their data that has been translated into the OMOP CDM. The audience for this project was database programmers, researchers, and decision-makers, and all those interested in using data to inform healthcare.

Event description: A two-hour hands-on workshop giving a brief history of the last 4 months of development of "Generative AI." These tools, these Large Language Models, offer present promise and peril -- disruption -- to ways of working and of learning. Outside the "hype," these tools are "calculators for words" and allow the same manipulation and reflection of a user's words as a calculator offers for a user's numbers. The workshop will guide users into using various free and paid tools, and the effective use of Large Language Models through chain of thought prompting. Remember: a LLM is "Always confident and usually correct." OSF Description (LLM generated): This two-hour workshop provides a comprehensive introduction to the world of Large Language Models (LLMs), focusing on the recent advancements in Generative AI. Participants will gain insights into the development and functionality of prominent LLMs such as Bing Chat and ChatGPT. The workshop will delve into the concept of LLMs as "calculators for words," highlighting their potential to revolutionize ways of working and learning. The session will explore the principles of Prompt Engineering and Transactional Prompting, demonstrating how consistent prompts can yield reliable and reproducible results. Participants will also learn about the practical applications of LLMs, including editing and proofreading papers, generating technical documentation, recipe ideation, and more. The workshop emphasizes the importance of understanding the terms of use and the responsibilities that come with using these powerful AI tools. By the end of the session, participants will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively use LLMs in various contexts, guided by the mantra that a LLM is "Always confident and usually correct."
