What does it take to rebuild the foundation of public health in the United States, and why did it take 30 years to get here? Director of the Division of Jurisdictional Support, CDC's Public Health Infrastructure Center, Stacey Madison Jenkins breaks down the Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG), a $4.6 billion investment reaching more than 100 health departments nationwide. Designed to strengthen the core of the system, not just respond to crises, PHIG is funding workforce expansion, modern data systems, and the everyday capabilities that keep communities safe. Jenkins explains how a nationwide shortage of 80,000 public health workers pushed the system to the brink, and how targeted investments are already putting thousands of professionals back into the field. From improving food safety inspections in Texas to doubling clinic capacity in Oklahoma and modernizing disease tracking in Nebraska, the results are tangible, local, and often invisible when they're working well.This work is supported by funds made available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), National Center for STLT Public Health Infrastructure and Workforce, through OE22-2203: Strengthening U.S. Public Health Infrastructure, Workforce, and Data Systems grant.

What if public health recruitment started with a summer camp? In this PHIG impact report, Veronika Hanna and Mondi Mason from the Denver Department of Public Health and Environment share how creative workforce strategies powered by the Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG) are opening new pathways into the field.  Veronika Hanna walks through Denver's innovative three-day public health “summer camp,” where high school and college students step into real-world roles, from testing river water quality to inspecting food trucks and exploring the work of medical examiners. And Mondi Mason expands on how Denver is scaling that vision through deeper partnerships with universities, community colleges, and public schools. From paid internships and long-term placements to co-developing research and securing joint funding, these collaborations are transforming workforce development into a more structured, sustainable system.This work is supported by funds made available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), National Center for STLT Public Health Infrastructure and Workforce, through OE22-2203: Strengthening U.S. Public Health Infrastructure, Workforce, and Data Systems grant.

What if the biggest barrier to better behavioral health outcomes isn't access to data, but how carefully we protect it? In this episode, Helen Oscislawski, a healthcare data privacy and interoperability attorney, explains that behavioral health and substance use data require stricter privacy protections due to their sensitivity and history of misuse, and are governed by laws such as 42 CFR Part 2. She highlights how modern interoperability and AI create new opportunities to share data more precisely, but also introduce greater legal and ethical risks. Updated regulations now allow more flexible data sharing to improve care coordination, while introducing stronger enforcement and penalties for non-compliance. She emphasizes that success depends on “privacy by design,” strong governance, and a deep understanding of consent frameworks to preserve patient trust. Tune in to learn how smarter consent, stronger privacy frameworks, and better governance can unlock safer, more effective data sharing in behavioral health!

Foundations of Amateur Radio While spending some quality time discovering what I don't know about GNU Radio, I explored the notion of attempting to at least understand a little more about how an FM signal works. Depending on your background, the letters FM mean different things. In amateur radio it's a way to encode information, generally audio, using something called frequency modulation. Outside the hobby, the letters point at commercial broadcast radio. While the two are related, they're not the same thing. In amateur radio use, FM is a single channel of mono-audio, however, in commercial broadcast radio, there's a whole lot more going on, interesting because it gives you ready-made access to a composite signal that's just complicated enough to be challenging without being so complex that you need to spend hours on understanding the thing. In essence, a commercial FM broadcast signal is multiple channels encoded in a specific and documented way. This is helpful, since you can compare the documentation against ready made examples and replicate the process for yourself. In case you're new here, I'm in the process of building a radio system, in software, using GNU Radio in a project called Bald Yak. Specifically, the Bald Yak project aims to create a modular, bidirectional and distributed signal processing and control system that leverages GNU Radio. It's called Bald Yak because by the time I'm done, the Yak is likely well and truly shaved. One of the easy things to forget when you're using GNU Radio Companion, is that the blocks you're connecting together on the screen into a flowgraph actually represent software, generated when you either build or run the flowgraph. This code is currently generated in either Python or C++, making me wonder, what does the code look like, and more specifically, what code would be needed to decode FM? It turns out that an old friend, the PySDR.org website has a whole chapter dedicated to this process. Chapter 18, the End-to-End Example, details how you can decode one of the channels embedded within a commercial FM broadcast, the RDS or Radio Data System signal. If you're not familiar, the PySDR.org website represents a whole book about software defined radio and python. It goes into as much or as little detail as you want, to explain how this whole software malarkey works, and takes you by the hand down the path of discovery. So, armed with a working example, I followed along the bouncing ball and made a working RDS decoder and I think, understood most of it. There's a few interesting wrinkles that I've contacted the author, Dr. Marc Lichtman, about and we'll see what comes of that. Here's the kicker. The author, who is also a senior member of the GNU Radio team, started with a GNU Radio flowgraph and reverse engineered what was happening to get to the point of the code that's available in PySDR.org Chapter 18. This is significant because it creates a relationship between the code I have in front of me and the code generated by GNU Radio, which means that when I start with a new flowgraph, not only do I know the steps required, I also know that the outcome is predetermined, as-in, I already know that there's a solution. Having professionally written software for over 40 years, I can tell you that this is not often the case. I realise that I can search the Internet for an RDS decoder flowgraph, but that's unlikely to get me to a better understanding of what GNU Radio is doing. Once I've clarified with the author, I'll add the code to my GitHub project, "Fifty Things you can do with a Software Defined Radio", specifically, "Receive road traffic information", since among other things, that's carried by RDS. As an aside, Rohde and Schwarz have a lovely YouTube video on the topic, "Understanding the Radio Data System", which is giving me a whole set of ideas about things we might attempt with amateur radio repeaters, but that's a story for another time. Meanwhile, have you considered what other signals exist on the RF spectrum that you might want to decode and how you'd go about this? I'm Onno VK6FLAB

He explains Venice's unbundled architecture where each component—from Kafka-based pub/sub to RocksDB-powered servers—operates as an independent distributed system. Félix details their rigorous chaos engineering practices, including regular load tests that push data centers beyond normal capacity to ensure reliability.The discussion covers fundamental distributed systems concepts like the CAP theorem and the trade-offs between consistency and availability in multi-region deployments. He also explains why Venice, as a derived data system, deliberately sacrifices strong consistency for high throughput and availability, and concludes by discussing their experimental integration of DuckDB for SQL-based analytics and data exploration capabilities.RECOMMENDED BOOKSKasun Indrasiri & Danesh Kuruppu • gRPC: Up and Running • https://amzn.to/3sBGBJJTomer Shiran, Jason Hughes & Alex Merced • Apache Iceberg: The Definitive Guide • https://amzn.to/488Z30kWilliam Smith • Arrow Flight Protocols and Practices • https://amzn.to/4o2Q2fdAdi Polak • Scaling Machine Learning with Spark • https://amzn.to/3N9vx1HMark Needham, Michael Hunger & Michael Simons • DuckDB in Action • https://amzn.to/45QwSliSimon Aubury & Ned Letcher • Getting Started with DuckDB • https://amzn.to/3VPk4qBlueskyInstagramLinkedInFacebookCHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUSJoin this channel to get early access to videos & other perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/joinLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!

In this episode of the Common Good Data Podcast, Roger and Drew are joined by Sydney Idzikowski, Associate Director of the Charlotte Regional Data Trust, for a deep dive into how integrated data systems can “move at the speed of trust.” Together, they unpack what administrative data is, why it so often remains siloed across agencies, and how the Data Trust works to securely connect information from sectors like housing, education, and public health. Sydney shares how building trust—amid privacy concerns and data surveillance fears—is central to effective data sharing, and explains the governance, legal, and technical frameworks that make it possible. Sydney has been at the helm of turning fragmented agency data into a single, trusted resource for research, planning, and evaluation. From linking school records to shelter stays, to mapping out the pathways of people who've experienced homelessness – she'll share real‑world stories that show how data can drive policy changes that actually help people.In this episode we'll cover:The biggest challenges with administrative data at the local levelHow a “data trust” works and why it matters for privacy, ethics, and impactSuccess metrics for an integrated data system (think 35 % of a county's population!)A compelling case study on homelessness services that led to a full‑time social worker in a shelterPractical tips for researchers, practitioners, and anyone curious about using linked data responsiblyCheck out the Charlotte Regional Data Trust and Actionable Intelligence for Social Policy.

Register for #WISE12 - Join us for the world's premier education innovation summit: https://wise-qatar.org/wise-12/ In this episode of WISE On Air, we explore the human side of #artificialintelligence with Professor Munther Dahleh, founding director of MIT's Institute for Data Systems and Society. As machines become increasingly capable, Munther argues that understanding people, not just #algorithms, will determine whether AI truly serves humanity. From his early work designing control systems for spacecraft to his current focus on societal applications of #AI, Munther shares insights on: - The "trilingual student" concept - why future innovators need technical skills, social science understanding, and domain expertise - Why he uses ChatGPT for reports but never for recommendation letters - The hidden dangers of "mediocre systems at scale" - How self-driving cars force us to confront moral decisions we never ask human drivers to make - Why he wishes he had studied more philosophy and anthropology - The future of healthcare, education, and work in an AI-driven world Munther challenges the notion that technological advancement alone will solve society's problems, emphasizing that the most critical breakthroughs may come from understanding human behavior, ethics, and social systems. About the Guest: Professor Munther Dahleh is a Professor at MIT and founding director of the Institute for Data Systems and Society.

Joy Reid leads this episode of the ReidOut with Judge Tanya Chutkan's rejection of efforts brought by 14 states to curtail Elon Musk and DOGE's access to federal data across seven agencies. Joy and her guests discuss this plus Trump's continued revenge tour, this time with the resignation of the head of the criminal division of the U.S. Attorney's office for Washington, D.C., after she refused to carry out politically motivated orders. Also in this episode, chaos in New York City with the mass resignations of Mayor Eric Adams' deputy mayors, and New York Governor Kathy Hochul holding meetings to decide whether to remove Adams from office. Plus, negotiations in Saudi Arabia about the war in Ukraine and Russia, but without Ukraine present. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

The National Science Foundation fired 168 probationary employees Tuesday as part of the Trump administration's efforts to reduce the size of the federal workforce, the agency confirmed. In a written statement, NSF spokesman Mike England pointed to President Donald Trump's executive order last week that included plans to reduce the size of the federal workforce as part of the work of the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. “To ensure compliance with this E.O. the National Science Foundation has released 168 employees from Federal service effective today,” England said. “We thank these employees for their service to NSF and their contributions to advance the agency mission.” He confirmed that all of the terminated employees were probationary. A federal judge Tuesday denied a request from Democratic attorneys general to temporarily cut off Department of Government Efficiency access to U.S. government IT systems, delivering a blow to states aiming to sideline the ongoing Elon Musk-led data expedition at agencies. Judge Tanya Chutkan of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ruled that the states did not show that they would “suffer imminent, irreparable harm absent a temporary restraining order.” The state AGs had argued that Musk's actions in deploying DOGE surrogates to root around in federal computer systems violated the Constitution's appointments clause due to the fact that he has not been nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate. Though no one has been more closely associated with DOGE than Musk, a Trump administration official said in a court filing Monday that the world's richest man is merely a senior advisor to the president and not a DOGE employee or the DOGE administrator.

Motor racing has a long tradition as an incubator of technology. AI is the latest example as tech companies flood into the sport as partners, helping teams harness AI to improve performance. F1 increasingly uses AI in its TV and online coverage to provide insights and content tailored for fans. The FIA is also getting in on the act; this week it announced that AI will now help the F1 race officials and play a role in sensitive decisions on things like track limits and analysis of race incidents. So what impact is AI already having on F1? Where might it get involved in the future? And should there be a limit to how far it goes? We hear from a panel of industry experts: Rob Smedley, CEO of Smedley Group, Former F1 Director of Data Systems; Ferrari and Williams engineer, Joe Carroll, General Manager, Telco, Media, Entertainment, Games and Sport, Amazon Web Services and Stephane Timpano, CEO Aspire, which runs the A2RL autonomous racing league, where the AI coders are the stars.

Q: What positions are critical to the long-term health of your organization?Regardless of the type of organization (corporate, government, non-profit) these roles are essential for them to thrive and are typically hard to fill.Q: Who's included in the talent pool with the ability to advance to key positions?Q: How are they prepared to meet the business need?When leadership teams are diverse in thought, skill and culture, the organization is better prepared to innovate new products and services, dominate their competitive landscape, and reinvigorate organizational talent to exceed performance expectations.Join this candid conversation on the Inclusive Enterprise Conversation Podcast with  Dr. John Greene, Senior Vice President and CHRO of TDS® Telephone and Data Systems, a diversified telecommunications company serving over six million customers nationwide.We discussed the opportunity to think differently and enhance current talent processes by making DEI part of succession planning with real-world actionable, coachable success practices to grow the business.It doesn't take longer to build your leadership pipeline, instead it takes concerted effort and intention to challenge the status quo, to make your teams and organization stronger.  Achieve even higher levels of performance by realizing everyones' full potential.John's leadership experience provides a solid foundation for a pragmatic and inclusive approach to succession with real-world application.

Today's guest is an entrepreneur who got her skills in organizing business systems where any young talent might consider learning efficiency: the Chick-fil-a drive-thru. Sarah Hinkley, CEO of Barn Owl Precision Ag, actually helped to build the fast-food chain's drive-thru system as we know it today (alongside her brother). Watching a major company leverage technology to solve problems really inspired Sarah and from that, a company was born.  Sarah gets into Barn Owl's inception, creating new innovation to supplement a massive labor problem and listening to what growers need today, tomorrow and what would be nice in the future. She dives into how a Barn Owl robot functions and what factors are driving the need for more agility on-farm. As a serial minded entrepreneur, Sarah also provides insight into launching an idea into a business, creating solutions to problems and making a difference through your work (even when it hurts).
