Workshop objectives

The workshop aims to highlight Warwick’s involvement with the Alan Turing Institute, present ongoing projects between Warwick-affiliated researchers and the Turing, and identify ways in which researchers at Warwick can contribute to new and ongoing activities at the Turing. A particular emphasis is put on research in the mathematical sciences.

The Alan Turing Institute is the UK’s national institute for data science and artificial intelligence. Warwick University currently has 24 Turing Fellows associated with eight departments. Researchers affiliated to Warwick are involved in activities such as the Data Study Groups and the Data Science for Social Good programme.
