As Harvard Medicine professors ... a definition of 'Avatar Bot Electronic Medical / Health Record'



Dear Len and Dick, 

As Harvard Medicine professors, I'd like to e-introduce you here, and also share with you the following: 

Someone asked recently about a definition of 'Avatar Bot Electronic Medical / Health Record,' so here's an

'Avatar Bot Electronic Medical / Health Record' definition -

Where an electronic health record (EHR) is a digital version of a patient's paper chart (and EHRs are real-time, patient-centered records that make information available instantly and securely to authorized users, allowing access to evidence-based tools that providers can use to make decisions about a patient's care), Avatar Bot Electronic Medical Records integrate individual actual patients' health data with digital artificial humans (e.g. Neon - https://twitter.com/labordeolivier/status/1216969846841364480 - and this image - https://local.google.com/place?id=13580134555851014887&use=posts&lpsid=3025538053156380527) with AI / machine learning and geo-location information with all varieties of diagnostic imaging, for new medical capabilities such as physical-digital CRISPR gene editing and upcoming cellular & molecular tele-robotic surgery, including a focus on 1-1 actual-virtual, physical-digital correspondence, - integrating too video records of medical procedures. Text is an annotation to the avatar bot's artificial human anatomy.

Think too avatar bots in Google's / Stanford Medicine's / Duke Medicine's Project Baseline project -for physical samples into data to chart pathways to health, that is to "collect comprehensive health data and use it as a map and compass, pointing the way to disease prevention" (https://www.projectbaseline.com) - into Google Street View with time slider / Maps / Earth / TensorFlow / Translate, and for species too at the cellular and atomic levels.

And such 'AVATAR BOT ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS' will also be developable via video-to-3D applications, and for working in platforms such as Google Poly (a library of virtual reality - VR - and augmented reality - AR - objects) medically.

Cheers from the SF Bay Area,

Scott

Dear Dick, Lucy and Ma,

How are you doing, Dick? In Google Street View, I just 'walked' from the 1st Parish (Unitarian) Church of Brookline, Massachusetts -

https://www.google.com/maps/place/First+Parish+in+Brookline/@42.3271452,-71.1306555,3a,75y,90t/data=!3m8!1e2!3m6!1sAF1QipNQDQYEVkjzWg39TFvYsiEK3JrNBajCn11QESVT!2e10!3e12!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipNQDQYEVkjzWg39TFvYsiEK3JrNBajCn11QESVT%3Dw121-h86-k-no!7i2327!8i1643!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xd63f59695426f917!8m2!3d42.3271452!4d-71.1306555

- to 19 Oakland Road (all in Google Street View, across Cypress et al.) - and in the 2018 version of 19 Oakland Road, there's even a picture of the back of you walking up your front steps I'm glad to say. You can experiment yourself with the arrow keys on your computer from the above URL if you're interested in seeing this. It was really nice to see you and your home herein!

(I recently attended a Stanford Medicine Biomedical Institute talk in Zoom video conferencing with Leneord D'Avolio, also a professor in the Harvard Medical School - https://scholar.harvard.edu/len/home - but with a focus on Artificial Intelligence and health care, and we've been corresponding about WUaS in part, I'm glad to write).

Am hoping you're recovering apace ...

With very best regards, Scott

You'd have to scroll down to the very bottom image on the left to enter into Street View and then to begin the "walk" in-world, FYI.  Warmly, Scotty

Hi Lucy, and Dick,

Am hoping to facilitate a realistic virtual earth in VR so people can unleash themselves anywhere from the comfort of their homes (and much better with time than 'walking' from 1st Parish Unitarian Church in Brookline to 19 Oakland Road :) ... and with realistic avatar bots as well). Perhaps you will be able to visit San Miguel from Brookline with my mother in actual San Miguel in 2021 and with Google Street View's time slider in 2020 too! :) Looking forward very much to finding out how you're doing! (Please remember that you'd be very welcome to come visit actual Cuttyhunk when I'm there ... if you'd like to adventure forth tethered close to home as you are). I know of a MacLeod family reunion in Maine on around August 1st so we'd have to plan around this.

Warmly, Scotty

Am seeking too to facilitate a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs for soaking and visiting (and "walking around in" virtually too:)

Peter, 9:29 AM
Hello Scott! How yre you? Are you still having these power outages?


Scott, 9:30 AM
Hello Peter!
Just a little one a week ago or so here in Canyon.


Peter, 9:31 AM
I came about something very interesting in SL yesterday. You can actually play your own YouTube videos in some places. I made a few examples for you:


Have you ever thought about the idea of creating a WUaS place in SL?

I found a place where you get building materials for classrooms or even whole buildings for free. The only thing you would need is some land.


Scott, 9:34 AM
Interesting ... (there was a platform in SL 10+ years ago which was 'surround realism' re one's avatar - it would be interesting if one could put Youtube videos in place of the realistic pictures that made up this 'holodeck' I think it was called)


Scott, Peter, 9:35 AM
BTW, the place I filmed the videos are free to use for everyone. They are like small one apartments and come fully furnished.


Scott, 9:35 AM
It could be interesting to explore a relationship with Harvard's Berkman Island in these land regards.


Peter, 9:37 AM
I would be willing to create the buildings and furnishings, but I just don't have the money right now to rent any land.


Scott, 9:37 AM
Interesting creative use of Youtube videos in SL, Peter!
And neither does WUaS have the money. An email to Charlie and Rebecca Nesson could yield a SL contact in their BKC center at Harvard Law ...
re land


Peter, 9:40 AM
You definitely need a space where you have kind of admin rights in order to keep trolls out.

I know that OpenSim offered free land at one point. The problem is that not many people are in OS.


Scott, 9:43 AM
But it's particularly the group conversation aspect in voice and text (and with avatar's present) that I find generative re learning ... re conference method ... https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Conference_Method_of_Teaching_and_Learning - for developing the conference method online, and also Reed College's Hum 110 in group video conference. Thanks.

Conference Method of Teaching and Learning - World University and School Wiki
https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org

If I reached out to Harvard Law's BKC, and got access to admin rights or similar, would you be interested in being an admin? (The 'Harvard' name could be key to attracting great students too - and re building etc).


Peter, 9:54 AM
Being the admin isn't the problem, but I haven't had any experience for something like that yet. I'm just working my way into creating things in SL and it seems very interesting to me. Still, the controlling of an SL parcel shouldn't be too difficult, as anyone can rent or buy land in SL, but not everyone is a tech nerd.


Peter, 10:00 AM
You don't even need a plot of land. You could just start with a space that you have full rights over.

You could even hold lectures in that space on a regular base and people would know where to go.


Scott, 10:02 AM
I think it's already possible to hold classes on Harvard's Berkman Island in SL with students from around the world, so I'm not sure I'm going to reach out at this time to inquire with Harvard Law BKC about admin access ... and students could watch MIT OCW Youtube's for example from home. If you might be interested in finding out about admin access here, google this.


Peter, 10:12 AM
My point is that you need a place where you have full rights in order to put up logos for example. A kind of advertising space for WUaS. It probably boils down to renting your own place in the end anyway, as supposed to being a 'subtenant' of another university. After all, WUaS could one day become a kind of competition to already established universities.


Scott, 10:21 AM
Educational rationales will inform some of this. I find it interesting that Harvard Law Prof held a number of CyberOne: Law in the Court of Public Opinion classes in 2006-2007 in SL, but then stopped doing so. Then in 2016, he went to the edX HarvardX platform to teach JuryX. In the meanwhile, I had taught 'Society and Information Technology' on Harvard's Island in SL for nearly ten years. Charlie Nesson also held a mock Burning Man trial in SL (where he got to play the role of a judge newly).


Scott, 10:27 AM
It would be interesting to reach out to him to teach a course on Harvard's Island in SL in the autumn of 2020, co-listed between edX / HarvardX / and World University and School even ... and maybe I could teach Society and Information Technology also in the autumn on Harvard's Island here ... this might open an avenue for WUaS to get some admin rights to Berkman Island, but maybe not for logos. My sense in general is that Second Life is very very quiet, almost as quiet as OpenSim ... and that one needs a big name like Charlie Nesson to get people to come into SL, and then it would be mostly on Harvard's virtual island, and not other islands ... and not necessarily for branding (except if your logo preceded my Youtube talks viewed inside SL ) ... just some speculations ... and people could learn to build in the Berkman sandbox ... I don't see SL increasing in population, but I do wonder what platforms will inform a realistic virtual earth for STEM and as classrooms into the future.


Peter, 10:37 AM
I thinking more of SL as a starting point and from there reaching out to other platforms, very much like Draxtor does it in Sansar. Sansar itself is even quieter than SL, but he uses it as his kind of headquarter. From there he streams all his regular 'shows' to several platforms like YouTube, Twitch, Periscope....

Ok, I have to go now. Just wanted to tell you my ideas about more exposure for WUaS. Take care.


Scott, 10:44 AM
Thanks for your interesting ideas. I think Draxtor began his creative video-ing of 3D virtual worlds in Second Life and with the Machinima idea - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Machinima_Videos_(Making) ... You could potentially begin creating your own Machinima's from SL and build an audience like Draxtor has ... whom I think prefers SL to Sansar ... yet as a Linden Lab journalist in a sense, and having gotten to know probably ALL the players over the years (10-15 years+), he also shapes a virtual world discourse, generates prodigious creative output, and probably is in a sense a head of Linden Lab's envisioning ... :)
 (Draxtor's amazing :)
 ... and all from California, as a kind of composer, and while raising a family on the central coast

Scott, 11:49 AM
Peter, it would be great too if an upcoming single realistic virtual earth could include the ability to do actual-virtual, physical-digital architecture (and Google's ecosystem has such tools, but isn't strong on Avatar bots in a virtual world that's fairly open for co-building such as SL). Cheers, Scott
