Description

The Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) has recently launched a new initiative on Computational Social Sciences which aims to prepare the social sciences and humanities for the era of data and AI, increase the collaboration between social scientists and computer scientists, and facilitate access to vast amounts of data and HPC for the social science community. This talk will present the strategy, infrastructures, and initial research projects associated with this initiative at BSC, and connect this work to FAIR data initiatives led by CODATA for advancing science and addressing societal challenges.
