Data Science Team

The Data Science (DS) Team supports the institute directive by empowering researchers and students to integrate data science tools and techniques into research across all disciplines. We can help you meet your needs through:

  • CONSULTATIONS ON RESEARCH – engage us in discussing potential applications of data science to your research
  • TRAINING ON DATA SCIENCE SKILLS – attend and participate in our new DS initiatives, seminars, and hands-on workshops
  • CUSTOM TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES – request a DS team member to give a seminar or hands-on workshop to your students, course, lab group, or organization
  • COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH ENGAGEMENTS – engage us with your lab or organization on a DS program co-led by DS Team data scientists. Ever semester, the DS Team takes on 2-3 research engagements where we work closely with a research team providing training, support, and project management. Interested researchers should share our goal to enable the lab/team to carry on with data science projects independently in the future. Students from all disciplines are invited to participate as opportunities allow.

Sign up for a consult with the team, or use the scheduling links below to meet with an individual data scientist. We’re excited to support you in meeting your data science needs!
