Project name: SoBigData-PlusPlus “European Integrated Infrastructure for Social Mining and Big Data Analytics”
Project period: 01.05.2020 – 31.12.2024
SoBigData++ strives to deliver a distributed, Pan-European, multi-disciplinary research infrastructure for big social data analytics, coupled with the consolidation of a cross-disciplinary European research community, aimed at using social mining and big data to understand the complexity of our contemporary, globally-interconnected society.
Pushing the FAIR and FACT principles further, SoBigData++ render social mining experiments more easily designed, adjusted and repeatable by domain experts that are not data scientists.
SoBigData++ advances from the awareness of ethical and legal challenges to concrete tools that operationalise ethics with value-sensitive design, incorporating values and norms for privacy protection, fairness, transparency and pluralism.
SoBigData++ has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreements No. 871042

Project name: MLFPM2018 “Machine Learning Frontiers in Precision Medicine”
Project period: 15.08.2019 – 14.08.2022
The Marie Curie Innovative Training Network entitled “Machine Learning Frontiers in Precision Medicine” brings together leading European research institutes in machine learning and statistical genetics, both from the private and public sector, to train 14 early stage researchers. These scientists will apply machine learning methods to health data. The goal is to reveal new insights into disease mechanisms and therapy outcomes and to exploit the findings for precision medicine, which hopes to offer personalized preventive care and therapy selection for each patient.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No 813533.
