A programme using mixed methods to map out expertise in the area of performance measurement at the intersection of data science, algorithmic culture, media and sport.
Democratising Futures (DemFutures for short) is an initiative created by PhD students at the University of Edinburgh. We want to create a space for those asking a shared question: how can our research help build more democratic futures? We bring together diverse perspectives to this shared interest, from deliberative and participatory democracy, to governance and policy to polarisation and populism.
This GCRF funded project establishes a network of parties interested in the wide range of opportunities and risks that have been created as a result of the use of digital data.
This project aims to demonstrate how improvements in diagnostics and treatment decisions can lead to better, more effective and sustainable applications of antibiotics in livestock farming in an international context.
This research project found that victims and witnesses of domestic abuse are still experiencing trauma within the justice system despite major legal reforms introduced in 2019.
The project investigates how green‑transition initiatives can unintentionally bolster state power to prolong oil extraction. Centring on Ghana and the UN Energy Compacts, it probes tensions between net‑zero goals and continued fossil‑fuel investment to support more just and sustainable energy pathways.
The research will analyse pathways that meet current UK policy targets for reducing emissions.
A knowledge exchange fellowship funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC).
Enriching Exhibition Scholarship (EES) is a collaborative, interdisciplinary project that uses exhibitions and the sharing of objects as the key to enriching existing art metadata developed by the Linked Art collaboration. It was led by the University of Edinburgh and Yale University with substantial engagement from Oxford University’s e-Research Centre and Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology.
This initiative marks the first collaboration of its kind, uniting computer and social scientists from the University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt University with GBV experts and survivors. Together, we are setting a new standard for detecting and mitigating online misogyny and abuse.
This project explores knowledge exchange between the UK’s legislatures and UK universities
