The video highlights the World Food Programme’s (WFP) transformative use of data analytics to combat hunger and enhance humanitarian operations. Tools like Optimus and Dots optimize supply chains, cutting costs and improving aid delivery, even in crisis zones like South Sudan. Partnerships with universities and private sector organizations demonstrate the power of collaboration in scaling innovative solutions. How can other humanitarian organizations adopt similar technologies to improve their efficiency? Should WFP’s tools be shared as open-source solutions to maximize global impact? Let’s discuss how advanced analytics can revolutionize humanitarian aid and address challenges in resource-constrained environments. What are your thoughts?

Thanks.

amazing persion

The rot runs very deep. Higher education is pretty much unsalvadgeable at this point.

Lauren Czerniak's work is both inspiring and impactful, showcasing the power of STEM to solve real-world healthcare challenges like pharmaceutical inventory and concussion management. Her emphasis on mentorship is especially meaningful-her advice that even influencing one student can make a difference resonates deeply. It's a reminder that small actions can lead to significant change. Her journey raises an important question: How can institutions better support women in STEM to not only enter the field but thrive as leaders? I’d love to hear thoughts on effective strategies for promoting equity and long-term success.

This webinar provided an in-depth look at how generative AI can enhance ideation and decision-making processes in areas like operations research, management science, and sustainability. The experiments highlighted the synergy of human-AI collaboration in generating and evaluating innovative ideas, while also revealing the limitations of AI in extreme novelty. The discussion emphasized the evolving need for "AI interaction expertise" and the ethical, strategic, and critical thinking skills required to leverage generative AI effectively. It was inspiring to see AI positioned as a transformative co-pilot for tackling complex challenges, from creative problem-solving to advancing sustainable goals. An insightful session!

This video offered an insightful glimpse into the operations and impact of the INFORMS Transportation Science and Logistics Society! The initiatives for supporting young researchers and promoting diversity will be a big step forward in growth and inclusion. Kudos to the team for showcasing how data-driven innovation shapes the future of logistics and transportation science!

Super big on making analytics something digestible and engaging so really enjoy that Evan combines his comedy with his technical profession! Going to have to check the predictable joke book out

This video is interesting in how it providing a vivid description of INFORMS meetings, highlighting their unique opportunities for networking and learning. He also delves into his keynote address on the intersection of operations research and national security, elaborating on the challenges and innovations shaping this critical area. The reflects on recent lessons learned, what he values most about INFORMS, and what has motivated him throughout his career are also thought-provoking. I’d love to hear what others think about the potential solutions presented here. Are there any examples of success in similar situations that stand out to you?

In the Resoundingly Human podcast episode, Ashley Kilgore interviews Prashant Yadav, an expert from INSEAD, on the vital role of healthcare supply chains in global health security. He shares insights on how COVID-19 exposed the weaknesses in healthcare supply chains, emphasizing the need for resilient and flexible systems that can quickly adapt during global health crises. He explains that many supply chain components, such as vaccine adjuvants from Chile, depend on global sources, illustrating the interconnectedness of global health and security. He highlights two big takeaways: the need for flexible manufacturing and fast funding to respond to pandemics. He suggests that these elements allow for faster, more agile responses. He also points to tools like the World Bank’s pandemic emergency financing, which releases funds at a pre-set case threshold. His comments on balancing idle capacity and flexibility felt especially relatable, as this principle applies to many industries, including my own work in logistics. One aspect I found particularly effective was how Yadav humanized the topic with specific examples, like Chilean soap bark adjuvants, making complex ideas easy to grasp. To improve, it would be beneficial to include more stories from lower-income countries, showing a wider perspective on global health impacts. Overall, this discussion reflects class concepts on how resilient, adaptable supply chains can meet unexpected challenges-a lesson that resonates across various fields. Adding to his podcast, I believe medicine is a basic necessity, and pharmaceutical should be a responsibility of the state. India makes generic drugs which is very much accessible and affordable to everyone. If we remove the profit aspect from Pharma industry, I believe everything will fall into the right space. It is the profitability in pharma industry which leads to supply chain inefficiencies.

Good to see INFORMS posting videos promptly

EXCELLENT EXPLAINER.

Plis share colab document

excellent

Sign me up! Where the can I find my way into this field without being limited to the academic or military setting?

Is this competition still there? If so how do we enter?

Thanks for the video.... can you display that full vdo

You can give the code for the reference.

Awesome

Fine.

😅

😭😭😭😭😭😭👍

Thanks

A great Mathematician Frederick S. Hillier. Legend of Operation Research. He is familiar world wide for his respected book Introduction to Operations Research.

Good can you send me your address

So much od efforts by authorities and people. Thanks a lot for your efforts to make hajj easy and secure for everyone.

Thank you for uploading this seminar, it helped me understand the paper!

This gave me such a great perspective on this topic ! thank you :) great video.

Is there a beginner (prerequisite) video to this?

Great work!

😕 Promo sm

Great work!

Excellent presentation, Dr. Powell!

Thats amazing, this professor is one of the creators of the quasi newton solver broyden-fletcher-goldfarb-shanno (BFGS), this interview is just one year before his death. A really very insteresting interview!

All that savings... did they raise the wages of their employees with the surplus?

Now assigned to my students! Great work.

Wow grape!

Great talk!

That's the whole paper there, not a poster

The presenter is amazing at explaining

Can i get pdf files?

Very interesting but horrible presenter and terrible speech

Incredible lecturer! MIT are very lucky 😊

Where can I find 1 minute with members’ videos?

waste of time

No audio?

General Milley and Joint Chiefs As I am progressing in learning more about our Earth's Ecosystem and environmental hazards, I am learning that the myriad of hazardous particles in the air is not only affecting humans, but also affecting plant life, much of which we are ingesting. The particles from artillery and rocket fallout, along with industry emissions, and transportation emissions is even effecting the chlorophyl in plant life. The smell of the chlorophyl in wild grasses is almost toxic - causing sneezing, watery eyes and respiratory problems. This is because the wild grasses have adapted to the toxic chemicals brought down from acid rain. I have done my best to turn your media people around from these ridiculous sex games to prove that Scott's Turfbuilder and lawn products Really have a good point in protection of the environment! But ALL you people do is PLAY stupid Games! You all up there in Washington have GOT TO GET A GRIP ON THE EMERGENCIES THAT ARE HAPPENING AROUND THE WORLD INSTEAD OF PLAYING POWER VOODOO SEX GAMES! DAMN IT - HOW DUMB CAN YOU ALL BE TO BE CONSTANTLY PLAYING THESE HORRENDOUS GAMES! HELP US!
