DESCRIPTION:\n\nBots in the Kitchen: Philosophical Take on the Digital Food
  Transformation\n\nBy Andrea Borghini\n\nAssociate Professor in the Philos
 ophy Department at the University of Milan\n\nChair: Laurette Dubé (Scient
 ific Director of MCCHE)\n	Co-Chair & Moderator: John G. Keogh (Professor of
  Practice\, MCCHE\; Founder\, Shantalla Inc.)\n\nRegister & watch the webi
 nar\n\nView poster\n\nThe digital food transformation promises to rational
 ize food systems\, buttress healthy eating\, swiftly make available food c
 ultures\, and much more. All of this\, though\, requires the ability to ad
 equately represent the elusive and transitory nature of food and food prac
 tices in some formal language. Through a philosophical lens\, and with a s
 pecial focus on food ontologies\, in this webinar we unearth the ethical a
 nd theoretical perils and prospects that the digital food transformation c
 reates.\n\nAbout the speaker\n\nAndrea Borghini is Associate Professor in 
 the Philosophy Department at the University of Milan and\, since 2018\, th
 e director of Culinary Mind\, the leading international network devoted to
  a philosophical study of food from a theoretical angle. His research deve
 lops theoretical tools to rethink perspectives and policies concerning foo
 d systems\, food cultures\, food justice\, and dietary health. Andrea hold
 s a PhD in Philosophy from Columbia University (2007) and his initial area
 s of specialization included metaphysics and ontology as well as philosoph
 y of the life sciences. His work on food appeared in mainstream scholarly 
 journals\, including American Philosophical Quarterly\, Applied Ontology\,
  Ethical Theory and Moral Practice\, Food Culture and Society\, Food Ethic
 s\, Human Ecology\, The Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism\, Philosop
 hical Quarterly\, Studies in History and Philosophy of Science\, Synthese\
 , and World Development Sustainability. He also edited several special iss
 ues of journals (including Topoi and Food Ethics) and the volume Framing R
 ecipes (Bloomsbury\, 2022).\n\nAbout the series\n\nThe Precision Convergen
 ce series is launched to catalyze unique synergy between\, on the one hand
 \, novel partnerships across sciences\, sectors and jurisdictions around t
 argeted domains of real-world solutions\, and on the other hand\, a next g
 eneration convergence of AI with advanced research computing and other dat
 a and digital architectures such as PSC’s Bridges-2\, and supporting data 
 sharing frameworks such as HuBMAP\, informing in a real time as possible t
 he design\, deployment and monitoring of solutions for adaptive real-world
  behaviour and context.\n\nThe Precision Convergence Webinar Series is co-
 hosted by The McGill Centre for the Convergence of Health and Economics (M
 CCHE) at McGill University and The Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center\, a jo
 int computational research centre between Carnegie Mellon University and t
 he University of Pittsburgh.\n\n \n
