During his time in the United States, in addition to attending the 40th-anniversary celebrations of the MIT Media Lab, Professor Vinicius Brei visited the Institute for Quantitative Social Science (IQSS) and the Center for Geographic Analysis (CGA) at Harvard University.
The meeting with Devika Jain, Data Science Manager at the CGA and partner in the Atlas de Oportunidades (Atlas of Opportunities) project, strengthened the scientific collaborations between the institutions. The joint research has advanced the application of artificial intelligence and geospatial analysis to support small businesses and evidence-based public policies.
These partnerships strengthen the internationalization of Brazilian research and promote the integration among Harvard, MIT, and UFRGS, consolidating a global network of innovation and social impact.
