Research in the field of "Data Science"

The Data Science +X Research Center at the BHT conducts use-inspired basic research.

Our use-inspired basic research is often based on public funding with industrial or health care partners. This basic research has a horizon of about 36-60 months and looks at fundamental and often risky research questions. Few projects also investigate to focus on very narrow and rather applied research questions. The typical project duration for these projects is about 12-18 months.
