DATAMIND, Swansea University Medical School

The Population Data Science group, formerly known as the Health Informatics group at Swansea University Medical School, is at the forefront of the increasingly important field of Population Data Science – the science of data about people. Population Data Science is a growing and multi-disciplinary field, which focuses on collections of individuals, and the biological, economic, social, and environment experiences that shape their lives, their health and their wellbeing. We are proud to be pioneering this science across a range of data-intensive initiatives hosted at Swansea University Medical School. Our group led by Professors David Ford and Ronan Lyons, works locally, across the UK, and internationally to deliver a range of infrastructural, analytical and public engagement initiatives for the safe, socially-acceptable and effective use of population data for public benefit.
