Moving into the future

Since its establishment in 2006 the Oxford e-Research Centre has grown to be an internationally prestigious team of over 50 multidisciplinary researchers committed to accelerating research through innovative technology.

The Centre is home to a portfolio of research projects in the sciences,  social sciences, humanities, technology and research infrastructure development.

We are currently collaborating with more than 20 research units, leading a consortium of six University groups through e-Research South and building research collaborations  in  the US, Australasia  and Europe.

Each year a number of established scholars, industry leaders, practitioners, and policy makers of distinction or outstanding promise are welcomed as part of our visitor programme. This is designed to give Visiting Fellows the opportunity to collaborate on the development of innovative technologies to accelerate research. 

Through the natural synergy of research and underpinning infrastructure and technology the Oxford e-Research Centre continues to focus on developing and supporting national and University research infrastructure.
