The UK Data Service has put out a call for applications to become our third group of Data Impact Fellows. And this year, we are extending the scheme to include researchers and analysts in the charity sector, as well as in universities. Find out how to apply.
But what makes the fellowship scheme so china rcs data interesting, so worthwhile and so successful?
So far, two groups of early career researchers have become #DataImpactFellows and they couldn’t be a more varied bunch of people if you tried.
Their research ranges from uncovering the effects of racism on mental health in ethnic minority people to exploring foodborne illness (‘food poisoning’), and from providing government ministers with ‘trade shock’ information related to Brexit to developing an intelligent transport analytical model for a coach company, taking in ageing, wellbeing, politics and education (amongst others) along the way.
All of our Impact Fellows work with data which is part of the UK Data Service collection, and all of them are keen to create real-world impact with their research. The Data Impact Fellows scheme gives a little extra support with this. Along the way, they have shared their experiences and ideas through networking with each other and through this blog.
