Connected communities UPF

Connected Community Bioimage Analysis
The Connected Community will be driven by key societal challenges related to the development of advanced bioimaging tools and their analysis. We will actively involve extra-academic stakeholders to ensure the development of the community addresses the needs of the society. The key focus of our Community is the improvement of the analysis of microscopy images for basic research with a strong emphasis on biological and medical perspectives. The learning and research activities will be effectively combined within our Community to provide students with research-based learning experiences that foster their intellectual growth and contribute to the advancement of knowledge and we will make sure that our Community opens up its knowledge activities to a wide range of potential learners, including those who may not be able to engage in long-term physical mobility. We intend to include such students and enable them to benefit from an international experience

Connected Community for Digital Initiatives
The Connected Community for Digital Initiatives (DigIn) serves as a dynamic platform, merging the humanities with state-of-the-art digital technologies. It is committed to addressing critical societal challenges, such as heritage preservation, bridging the digital divide, and fostering sustainable urbanisation. Our comprehensive educational and research agenda is tailored to empower learners across varying levels of expertise. Through a diverse array of courses and workshops, participants are introduced to essential skills in data science, spatial analysis, and the transformative role of artificial intelligence. Our collaborative framework includes prestigious institutions such as Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Ca’ Foscari Venezia, and Technische Universität Dresden, providing an expansive pool of knowledge and resources. DigIn invites students, academics, policy-makers, and societal stakeholders to engage with us in this initiative, as we collectively strive to create a digitally proficient society capable of addressing global challenges.
