Check the Data Lab: Scotland’s Innovation Centre for Data and AI.
The Data Lab was founded in 2014 as part of Scotland’s Innovation Centres programme. We have operational hubs in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness. Together with a network of over 1,500 companies, public sector organisations, universities, and data experts, we’re working to make Scotland the global leader in data innovation. We exist to help companies and organisations use data science to make a difference in the real world. We are focused on giving individuals and organisations the practical skills and hands on experience they need to apply the latest data science thinking in the real world.
For a variety of resources on Advanced Research Methods check National Centre for Research Methods.
The National Centre for Research Methods (NCRM) was established by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) in 2004 and was originally coordinated from the University of Southampton. Since 2014 NCRM has been a partnership between three universities with international reputations in methodological research and training in the social sciences: University of Southampton, University of Manchester and University of Edinburgh. In January 2020 NCRM entered a new phase with an ESRC award for 5 years. The new phase focuses on delivering a comprehensive programme of cutting-edge research methods training across the UK. This phase is still delivered by the Universities of Southampton, Manchester and Edinburgh but this partnership is significantly enhanced and expanded to include strategically selected Centre partner institutions who will deliver training locally to ensure geographical and subject expertise diversity. The nine institutions are UCL, NatCen, WISERD, Bristol, Exeter, Essex, Leeds, Liverpool and Glasgow.
