Data Science Center

We are happy to welcome Hermine as an intern at the DSC. In the coming weeks, she will support our team with a variety of tasks while gaining insights into the interdisciplinary activities of the Data Science Center.

On March 19–20, 2025, the first cross-regional community meeting of the Data Science Initiative took place in Bochum. The initiative, originally launched by the DSC at the University of Bremen together with other partners, was further developed and strategically aligned during the workshop.

The E-Science-Tage 2025 took place in Heidelberg from March 12 to 14, focusing on “Research Data Management: Challenges in a Changing World”. DSC Coordinator Dr. Lena Steinmann was among the contributors, presenting the data competence center “DataNord”.

DSC research associate Maryam Movahedifar presented a talk at GPSD 2025 on preprocessing noisy time series using (M)SSA. Her contribution highlighted DSC's methodological work and will be submitted as a proceeding to the same conference she attended in Dresden.

Beginning of March the German-speaking Digital Humanities community gathered in Bielefeld for this year’s DHd conference. Nele Fuchs, our Data Scientist presented her poster "Data as a Bridge: Interdisciplinary Collaboration between Digital Humanities and Data Science in the DataNord Project."

This seven-day event aims to introduce early-career women in the political and social sciences to innovative computational methods. The summer school also provides networking opportunities for participants and promotes international exchange.

A warm welcome to our new DSC research associate Nils Leusmann. As part of the BMBF-funded joint project “INDIFUN-AI”, he will be working in the field of data science at the interface of computer science and environmental & marine sciences.

Following the successful kick-off workshop at INFORMATIK 2023, we continued to deepen the cross-regional networking of Data Science initiatives at this year's INFORMATIK Festival 2024 in Wiesbaden.

Learning, Researching, Networking – In our roadshows, the DataNord team visits your institution to showcase how researchers can benefit from a wide range of offers to enhance their data skills.
