EPSRC, 2021-2022, £430,000

This is a collaborative efforts with many visualisation researchers across the UK to provide visual analytics support in the fight against Covid-19. It started as a volunteer effort, led by Prof. Min Chen from Oxford University. A team of 20 visualisation researchers from over 10 different universities worked closely with epidemiologists who are modelling various aspects of Covid-19, such as its spread and the effect of different self-isolation policies. The team made considerable progress in a short span of time and later received funding from EPSRC to continue the work. More details are available on the UKRI website.
