Data Science Center in Health (DASH)

DASH is the Data Science Center in Health of the UMCG: a knowledge hub, community and facilitator in the area of health data science. DASH aims to advance data science in health by supporting innovative research projects and by bringing experts in data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence together. DASH provides assistance in overcoming major challenges you might encounter in data science and research IT facilities; problems that emerge during innovative research approaches that push the boundaries of what is currently possible. For instance: ethical, legal and societal issues (ELSI) that arise whilst performing groundbreaking data intensive research, coupling of data sets, developing and implementing advanced methods of data analysis, coming up with next level IT solutions or finding partners. DASH is a community and can therefore connect you to knowledge and people. It can bring you into contact with other UMCG departments or researchers that can help you with their expertise, but it can also introduce you to external specialists or (business) partners.
