Data Science Hub at the Charles Perkins Centre
The Data Science Hub is a collaborative partnership with the Charles Perkins Centre and Sydney Precision Data Science Centre, co-funded by the Charles Perkins Centre's Jennie Mackenzie Research Fund, the Faculty of Medicine and Health and Faculty of Science.听听
The Data Science Hub advances data-intensive research with a direct translational impact in biomedical, metabolomics health, epidemiological research, and beyond. We specialise in鈥痗ontext-specific data analysis鈥痜or high-throughput biomedical data generated by scientists.听
The Data Science Hub is committed to:听听
- supporting early- and mid-career researchers (EMCRs) by providing expert consultation, training, and resources within a collaborative ecosystem听
- enhancing translational impact to support the mission of the CPC听
- serving as a central data analytics repository to build capacity and share knowledge across the university听
- specialising in large-population database analysis.听
The Data Science Hub is led by inaugural director, Professor Jean Yang, the theme leader of Integrative systems and modelling at the Charles Perkins Centre with Dr Alistair Senior as the deputy director. Both leaders are dedicated to fostering a vibrant interdisciplinary hub with opportunities for meaningful impact and collaboration.
About us 听
At the Data Science Hub, we go beyond single inputs to explore the interactions among genetic and multiple environmental variables on health outcomes. Our iterative and collaborative approach leverages advanced data science techniques to provide tailored solutions, including:听
- experimental design consultation听
- advanced data analysis and modelling听
- upskilling and training opportunities听
- support for grant applications and research projects.听
Working with us听
Whether you need guidance on study design, data interpretation, or computational methods, we are here to support your research and drive impact.听听
If you鈥檙e interested in working with the data hub or finding out more, here鈥檚 how it works:听
- submit an to get started听
- if your project aligns with our scope, we鈥檒l schedule a free 60-minute consultation to discuss your needs.听听
- based on our discussion, we鈥檒l prepare a tailored proposal outlining how we can support your project, which may look like:听听
- Level one (one day of data science work): you may receive support for a grant application, supervision, or a comprehensive analytical report.听
- Level two (more than one day of data science work): outcomes could include an in-depth analytical report or skill development through hands-on collaboration with the Data Science Hub.
