The Population Data Science group, formerly known as the Health Informatics
group at Swansea University Medical School, is at the forefront of the
increasingly important field of Population Data Science – the science of data
about people. Population Data Science is a growing and multi-disciplinary field,
which focuses on collections of individuals, and the biological, economic,
social, and environment experiences that shape their lives, their health and
their wellbeing. We are proud to be pioneering this science across a range of
data-intensive initiatives hosted at Swansea University Medical School. Our
group led by Professors David Ford and Ronan Lyons, works locally, across the
UK, and internationally to deliver a range of infrastructural, analytical and
public engagement initiatives for the safe, socially-acceptable and effective
use of population data for public benefit.
