IDS Members

The HKU Musketeers Foundation Institute of Data Science (HKU IDS) wishes to work closely with our researchers at HKU with a number of new initiatives.  The Institute is not only home to newly recruited IDS researchers under the HKU-100 recruitment, it also acts as a focal point to connect our expertise in key areas ranging from data science, computing, mathematics, statistics, education, social sciences, business, and health care. Members are actively engaged in IDS, sharing the same vision and mission with IDS in promoting research excellence in data science, and contributing to its activities and programs.
