Research at LIDA
We conduct inter-disciplinary and impact-oriented research that address regional, national and global challenges, by applying cutting-edge data science, machine learning and AI to real-world problems.
Our portfolio of data analytics research and innovation projects is worth over £80 million, with multi-disciplinary communities of over 300 researchers engaged across different programmes and specialist interest areas.
LIDA’s research communities are currently focused on food main challenge areas that require interdisciplinary working: Food, Societies, Health and Environment.
Supporting these communities are five cross cutting programmes of work that focus on exploiting and developing our capabilities and capacity within four key methodological data analytics areas; Artificial Intelligence, Data Science Infrastructures, Visualization, Science of Data Science and Immersive Technologies.
