Specialists in the science of data
We are experts in data analysis, statistics, mathematical modelling and bioinformatics.
We apply our skills and experience to real-world problems, recognising that data science isn’t just a discipline in its own right, it’s a fundamental part of the scientific process.
Close collaboration with brilliant scientists working in many different fields leads to research having a genuine impact on the world around us.
