Advisory Service

The team advises clinical and academic teams and external collaborators on data science projects. We have expertise in research, development of generalisable tools to analyse data and deploying models within the hospital. We can help scope research projects from healthcare or operational needs, and then match skills from the data science team to lead analysis.
