Upcoming: Our 2021 event

With so many remaining uncertainties about Covid restrictions we now plan to hold an event towards the end of the year rather than in the summer.

Hopefully that means people will be able to get together in person rather than exclusively online.

This will allow us to offer everything that made the Summer Schools such a success – by bringing together PhD students, early to mid-career researchers and technical specialists to explore key research issues and meet their peers from every area of health data science.

It will also feature leading experts with insights on the fundamental issues of working with data plus interactive activities and lots of opportunities to expand your network of contacts.

Sign up for our training and education updates to receive information about the next summer school and how to take part and if you have other questions email: Learn@HDRUK.ac.UK

Our 2019 event

The 2019 summer school took place at St Andrews University, in Scotland, and also saw HDR UK work with local high schools. Due to the pandemic the event went digital in 2020.

You can see the brochure for full details of the St Andrews event and watch the videos to get a taste of what the Summer Schools offer. Or watch the video to hear from Summer School participants themselves.
