Cross University Research Event: Data Science - Present and Future

CURE brings together leading researchers from across the University to present their findings in three-minute, TED-style talks.

Each event is themed around a particular topic and you’ll come away inspired, knowing you are part of this brilliant research community. With your expanded knowledge you might even forge new research collaborations with like-minded individuals.

Celebrating its ten year anniversary in July 2024, this CURE will focus on the work and research being undertaken by the Institute of Analytics and Data Science (IADS).

Book to attend this event and see what it’s all about for yourself!

Presentations will be followed by networking (available for those attending in person only) and will provide a fantastic opportunity for attendees to come together, share ideas and develop new research collaborations.
