Making a video doesn't have to be hard! Proper planning and an understanding of which tools to use will help to make the creation process much easier. This session will illustrate the planning process of making a video as well as creating a script, providing software suggestions and providing access to example videos.

For the past decade IT professionals have recognized the power of story. All IT roles, from the system administrator to the chief information officer, have been admonished to forgo the tech spec recitals, and the jargon in favor of storytelling to obtain support for critical initiatives, or demonstrate value to the rest of the organization. But what is meant by the oft-used phrase ‘tell our story’?

We have designed a new multi-phased process utilizing DocuSign and our Document Management system, Perceptive Content, to reduce the onboarding process from weeks to potentially less than 24 hours, hence saving the university money by reducing paperwork and collecting all signatures electronically, and also weeks of labor cost to manually enter the data into UCPath System. In Phase 1 of the project, the amount of time between final signature by a new employee and data entry into the UCPath system is now less than 1 hour and could be as fast as 10 minutes.

The UCSF-SFDPH DeID OMOP database integrates EHR data from UCSF Health and SFDPH. UCSF Health primarily serves insured patients, while SFDPH provides accessible healthcare regardless of insurance or immigration status. This integration enhances research in population health and health equity by offering a unified patient database with broad demographic and socioeconomic representation. Our team developed detailed methodologies and transparent data mapping processes, including a global patient identifier and extension tables for health system data differentiation.

In September 2023, UCSF launched GenAI Office Hours, led by Academic Research Services and the UCSF Versa Tiger Team. This bi-weekly series fosters community, knowledge sharing, and explores AI applications within UCSF’s diverse workflows. Presenters from the community generously share their experiences and use cases with GenAI tools. Participants span a broad spectrum of roles, including professors, leadership, IT support staff, researchers, educators, and clinical practitioners.

We will present a groundbreaking approach to integrating immersive technologies in higher education.

Our institution has launched an innovative collaboration between our generative AI solution and a student-led cybersecurity club, setting new standards for AI security testing and student engagement in real-world challenges. Key aspects: Unique partnership: Students access pre-release code in staging environments Comprehensive testing methods: Input boundaries, system prompt extraction, web application security, LLM, jailbreaking Focus on AI-specific vulnerabilities: Exploring unique risks posed by AI systems Educational impact: Hands-on experience in penetration testing for students Real-wor

Our institution's IT department has launched an innovative AWS Credits Portal, revolutionizing student access to cloud computing resources.

We’ve developed a novel AI tool that creates course-specific, instructor-guided AI interactions, setting a new standard for responsible AI integration in higher ed. Key Features and Impact: Tailored learning: Instructors upload course materials for relevant AI interactions Improved academic integrity: Provides a sanctioned, course-specific AI tool Instructor empowerment: Allows guided AI integration in teaching Collaborative approach: Fosters student-instructor AI utilization Our pilot demonstrated significant engagement, with 5-10 AI conversations per assignment.

Scientists want to do science. Some things they don’t want to spend time doing include: - Making a plan for managing their data - Creating README files for their materials - Filling out and updating metadata for research outputs Our team provides tools and services to help make research data FAIR - Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. In this panel, we’ll discuss recent efforts to use Generative AI to help in data curation tasks, and the challenges and opportunities we’ve discovered.
