The Applied Statistics & Risk Unit (AS&RU) is a research and consultancy unit within the Statistics department at the University of Warwick. AS&RU has a remit to encourage and co-ordinate external partnerships — with academic and non-academic (industry, government, non-governmental organisations) partners alike — which give rise to new research avenues and enable the early applications of theoretical, methodological and algorithmic developments.
