Computer Science Laboratory for Mechanics and Engineering Sciences (LIMSI)

The “Computer Science Laboratory for Mechanics and Engineering Sciences” (LIMSI) is a pluri-disciplinary research laboratory gathering academics and scholars from various scientific fields: primarily from the Engineering and Information Sciences, but also from Cognitive Science and Linguistics. The laboratory was created in 1972 and since then research themes have progressively been expanded to Speech and Image Processing, then to a growing number of themes related to Human-Computer Communication and Interaction on the one hand; to Thermics and Energetics on the other hand.

University of Ghent, Belgium

Department of Applied Mathematics, Computer Science and Statistics

Motivated by practical problems, primarily from the bio-medical field, the statistics unit in the department of `Applied Mathematics, Computer Science and Statistics’ at Ghent University develops statistical models and studies their statistical and practical properties. We apply existing and new methodology to the design and analysis of important data sets from (bio-medical) researchers, the industry and government. Topics of special interest include causal inference, missing data, noncompliance in clinical trials, statistical genomics and survival analysis. We are further devoted to undergraduate and graduate teaching, and are not only involved in an advanced master in Statistical Data Analysis, but equally in the training of bachelors and masters in the biomedical sciences, biotechnology, informatics, mathematics and pharmacy.

University of Liverpool, UK

Institute of Translational Medicine, Department of Biostatistics

The Department of Biostatistics carries out methodological and applied research, as well as teaching. Our people are engaged in a broad range of collaborative projects. Main research areas are survival analysis, joint modelling of longitudinal and survival data, clinical trials methodology, statistical pharmacogenetics, multivariate data analysis, meta-analysis, quality of life data analysis, stereology and performance monitoring.
