SPAC - Social Physics & Complexity Lab

We are a research group at LIP using large scale computational tools to study societal challenges, especially in disease forecasting and public policy. This multidisciplinary research group, takes advantage of the so-called “Big-Data Revolution” and works together to understand how individual behaviour impacts on society. We also focus on the risks that these technologies might entail and we help establish the guidelines for ethical uses of data science and artificial intelligence. Our Mission: Our ultimate goals are to engage scientists and non-scientists in the policy-making process and to contribute to a more knowledgeable and critical society. We often speak publicly about ethics and the risks of Data Science and AI. We would be very happy to come give a seminar or workshop on responsible data science to your company or organization.
