Description
DASHH is an interdisciplinary graduate school that offers challenging PhD topics at the interface of the natural sciences, applied mathematics, and computer science. Here, highly talented graduates can do innovative data science research, acquiring and deepening unique insights with our partner institutes, the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron, Universität Hamburg, Hamburg University of Technology, Helmut-Schmidt-University, Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon, Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research, Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter, European XFEL, and Hamburg University of Applied Sciences.
In the DASHH projects, the common goal is to harness data by applying computer science and applied mathematics to advance and broaden our understanding of nature. We aim to educate the future generation of data scientists that will tackle tomorrow’s scientific challenges that come along with large-scale experiments as performed at our partner institutions. Our research topics cover challenges in the areas of Particle Physics, Structural Biology, Material Science, Accelerator Science, Ultrafast X-Ray Science, Computer Science, and Mathematics.
DASHH is one cornerstone of a quickly developing Data Science environment in the metropolitan area of Hamburg. By collaborating with the CDCS, the Leibniz ScienceCampus InterACt and the Machine Learning in Engineering Initiative of the TUHH (MLE@TUHH), we are strengthening the Hamburg research landscape connecting motivated data scientists with researchers in physics, biology, and engineering throughout the Hamburg research institutions. DASHH and five other Helmholtz Information & Data Science Schools (HIDSS) collaborate under the roof of the Helmholtz Information & Data Science Academy (HIDA).
Interested research group leaders from our partner institutes are welcome to apply as DASHH Principal Investigators to propose and supervise DASHH PhD projects.
Interested PhD students whose projects are related to the DASHH context and who are supervised by a DASHH Principal Investigator are welcome to apply for associate membership to benefit from DASHH internal events.
