UK Internal Medicine’s BIG Data Workshop strengthens research collaboration and productivity through hands-on training in clinical datasets, biostatistics and project design.
UK researchers are using an innovative technique called data sonification to transform complex biological information — such as protein structures and gene mutations — into musical sound.
NSF CAREER Award recipient Xin Liang helps scientists work more efficiently with massive datasets across fields such as climatology, cosmology and topography.
Data sonification is the process of taking exact data points — such as barometric pressure readings or gene sequences — and mapping them onto musical elements like melody, pitch, rhythm and timbre.
UK was awarded a four-year, $913,685 grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation to establish the Research Evaluation and Analytics Capacity Hub (REACH).
Now in its sixth year, the SPARK program trains undergraduate students from a broad range of backgrounds, experiences and communities to conduct impactful research to improve health disparities early in their college experience.
