Lydia Dishman at Fast Company: “Unconscious bias is exactly what it sounds like: The associations we make whenever we face a decision are buried so deep (literally—the gland responsible for this, the amygdala, is surrounded by the brain’s gray matter) that we’re as unaware of them as we are of having to breathe.
Center for Data Science and Public Policy: “Want to know if your organization is ready to start a data-driven social impact project? See where you are in our data maturity framework and how to improve your organizational, tech, and data readiness.

En el marco de un nuevo aniversario de este cuerpo artístico de la Casa de Bello, alojado en el Centro de Extensión Artística y Cultural de la Universidad de Chile, el quinto capítulo del proyecto "Legados para Chile" destacá el aporte que realiza al país este conjunto de músicos.
La Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional de Chile realizó su primer concierto el 7 de enero de 1941, iniciando un trabajo ininterrumpido que hasta el día de hoy ha aportado de manera significativa a la formación de cientos de músicos nacionales.
La actividad, en la que participan los estudiantes de la Escuela de Verano de la Universidad de Chile, busca complementar las actividades académicas de dicho programa con el deporte, entregando una perspectiva de formación integral de los jóvenes.
El organismo colegiado que funciona como superintendencia de la función evaluadora y supervisa los procesos de evaluación y calificación académica y el proceso de acreditación institucional, entre otras labores, inició su trayectoria el año 2006 a partir del actual Estatuto Universitario. Los ex integrantes de la entidad recibieron la Medalla Andrés Bello en una ceremonia realizada en el Salón de Honor de la Casa Central.
Este 5 de enero comenzaron las matriculas para los estudiantes que ingresarán este año a la Universidad de Chile por las vías de admisión de ingreso para ciegos y personas con estudios medios en el extranjero.
