Research
Our Research is focused on interdisciplinary approaches to tackle global challenges and societal issues.
The impact of our research is intended to be far reaching, addressing real-world problems in health, the environment and sustainability, ethics, governance, and the implementation, and use of AI systems. Our themes have been carefully considered to support the development of unique research platforms in rapidly growing and emerging areas, with a key focus on interdisciplinary techniques and collaboration.
DERI is rapidly developing and has created a growing community of academics, including new leading appointments that will galvanise research themes and the development of unique platforms. Our approach will bring fresh perspectives and enables DERI to prioritise, and respond to new and emerging topics.
Our current research themes are outlined below and we expect these to grow as the AI field continues to rapidly expand.
Responsible and Trustworthy AI
Building AI systems that are safe, fair, transparent and accountable, ensuring they can be trusted by individuals and society.
AI for Biomedicine and Healthcare
Pushing the boundaries of biology and healthcare using advanced computational techniques.
Environment and Sustainability
Developing AI-driven solutions to address environmental challenges and support a sustainable balance between people and the planet.
Emerging AI and Data Science Themes
AI is a rapidly growing field and, DERI is poised to respond and shape future Research Themes as the landscape changes.
