Project Proposals

Below is a list of internship projects which are continually being updated and added to. We also welcome project proposals from both prospective students and interested organisations. Please contact us at our mailbox if you would have queries or would like to discuss a proposal.

Closed Projects

Paused Projects

Paused projects are ones which we have advertised in the past and still interested in but either have been de-prioritised, need further research or there is an issue with data access delaying the work. Happy to discuss these briefs if you see opportunity.

area   technique   datamodality Causal Models to Generate Synthetic Longitudinal Data
area   technique   datamodality Exploring Large-scale Language Models with NHS Incident Data - Next Steps
area   technique   datamodality Fairness in Healthcare Data and Models
area   technique   datamodality Synthetic Data Exploration - Probablistic Graphical Models

Completed Projects

Completed Projects are ones which our previous interns have finished and reported on. There may still be many areas or investigation possible with these and so happy to talk about redeveloping or continuing.
