HETS 2021 is being held at the East Midlands Conference Centre at the University of Nottingham and is sponsored by Midlands Innovation in partnership with the Science Council. The 2021 summit will be the largest event held specifically for UK and Ireland higher education and research technical staff.
The Student Research Sandpit Workshop offers doctoral students the chance to experience the “Research Sandpit” format often used by research councils and other funders to stimulate and support new lines of thinking for tackling complex research challenges. The event will run virtually, part-time over ten days, so it can be managed in parallel with a doctoral research workload.
Digital Twinning is a method of using real-world data to create a virtual representation to model a range of processes and systems and predict potential outcomes. The focus of this workshop will be around urban and environmental digital twins which are already transforming how cities are being planned, built, and managed, with examples appearing in cities across the world
