GW4 data intensive workshop
18 Gorffennaf 2017
On 5 June, we hosted a workshop exploring challenges and opportunities in data intensive research for the GW4 Alliance.
Data intensive research underpins many aspects of research carried out by the universities of the GW4 Alliance.
There are significant strengths and expertise across the institutions, offering great opportunities for collaboration. The workshops aimed to develop a more coherent research community in data science and related disciplines across the South West and South Wales region.
Each event highlighted the areas of research interest in each institution and included an afternoon dedicated to focus themes:
- University of Bath - creative economy
- University of Exeter - the environment
- Cardiff University - government and social sciences (see presentation slides below)
- University of Bristol - medicine and bioinformatics.
