Institute of Data Science and AI to host three 'sandpit' events

Through our partnership with the Alan Turing Institute, the Institute of Data Science and AI, which delivers activity for the Data Science and AI Digital Futures theme, is hosting three ‘sandpit’ events in Autumn/Winter 2021/22.

These sandpits are an opportunity for researchers, private, public and third sector, to come together and devise research proposals for projects on a range of data science and AI-related topics. A number of proposals developed at the sandpits will be awarded funding to cover research costs for six-month feasibility studies led by a University of Manchester researcher.

If you would like to participate in one of these sandpits, please follow the links below to register:

• Greater Manchester Care Record sandpit | 3-5 November
• Sustainability sandpit | 17-18 November
• Digital Twins sandpit | 1-2 December

If you would like further details on these events, please contact Matthew Harrison, IDSAI Manager and Turing University Liaison Manager.
