As part of her doctoral studies, Carola Heinzel (C01) visited Professor Jason Schweinsberg at the University of California, San Diego for about 10 weeks. During her time in San Diego, she focused on enhancing mathematical theory to estimate the net growth rate of cancer even for a small number of cells. This scientific exchange not […]
From November 13th to 15th, our doctoral researchers gathered at the Schwarzwald Lodge Rothaus for an unforgettable first SMART Retreat. Day 1: Hitting the ground running We kicked things off with parallel Write/Code/Collab/Discuss (WCCD) sessions, a structure that would continue throughout the retreat, with changing pitches each day. Doctoral researchers jumped straight into collaboratively working […]
On November 4, we held our SMART Pitch Workshop at the Co-Creation Room, University Freiburg, where our doctoral researchers came together to pitch their project ideas for the upcoming SMART Retreat. This workshop was designed to help each participant refine their goals, articulate their challenges, and outline the connections they’d like to foster with fellow […]
On June 28, 2024, our IRTG SMART early career scientists gathered for a dynamic session to discuss how their projects align with the broader SmallData Vision. In preparation for the meeting, project pairs were tasked with providing their thoughts on the following five key questions in relation to a draft vision document from SmallData shared with them beforehand: These […]
From April 3rd to April 5th, doctoral researchers of our SmallData Integrated Research Training Group (SMART) took part in a dynamic and enriching Good Scientific Practice course. The workshop, hosted by Dr. Michael Mende, provided an engaging platform for docs to delve into essential topics crucial for maintaining ethical standards in scientific research. The 1.5-day, […]
We are thrilled to share highlights from our recent Collaboration Kick-Off Days held on February 20th and February 27th, 2024. The goal? To ignite collaboration and spark project ideas with disciplines outside of doctoral researchers’ labs. In preparation for the event, doctoral researchers sought out potential research collaborations with docs from other labs within SmallData. They produced […]
SmallData brings together a broad group of data disciplines to tackle small data challenges that are at the intersection of these disciplines. Our Integrated Research Training Group (IRTG) SMART will enable the four disciplines to move closer together to work on small data innovations in a collaborative effort.
Each doctoral researcher within SmallData will automatically become a member of SMART.
