Data Science Collaborative Research Programme 2026

The Data Science Collaborative Research Programme aims to support synergistic research collaborations rooted in data science and computational science with immediate or potential future applications within areas of relevance to the Novo Nordisk Foundation's strategy. The programme seeks to foster research collaborations between data scientists and experts in other fields, including medicine, biology, biotechnology, physics, and chemistry. Research proposals should address the development of new algorithms, methods and technologies within data science, computational science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, statistics, bioinformatics, and other computational sciences, and/or applications of these methods to areas relevant to life science, biomedical and health science, public and global health, infectious disease, sustainability, green transition, agriculture, and natural and technical sciences. The programme aims to support an excellent academic research and education ecosystem within data science in Denmark while advancing education and training courses in data science-related topics.
