Pioneering Discovery
Engaging partners across campus and beyond, the institute addresses the need for theoretical advances in data science as well as for new data-centered approaches to questions in brain science, engineering, environmental science, the humanities, medicine and public health, physics, sociology, and other disciplines. As “Big Data” exerts its influence in most areas of modern life, Brown’s new Data Science Institute also seeks to increase data fluency, educate the next generation of data scientists, and explore the impact of the data revolution on culture and society.
