IDSI serves an umbrella to the following DS centers
Our International Partners
The Israel Data Science Initiative is pleased to collaborate with the Helmholtz Information and Data Science Academy (HIDA). HIDA is an umbrella organization that coordinates Data Science activities among the 19 Helmholtz research institutes located throughout Germany. This partnership will provide a platform for collaboration between IDSI and HIDA in promoting research and development in Data Science in Israel and in Germany. One of the first joint projects is a summer exchange program for doctoral and post-doctoral students, allowing them to spend time in one of the research centers in the partner country – in one of the university Data Science research centers in Israel, or in one of the Helmholtz Institutes in Germany.

As a newly formed body, IDSI’s contributions to research, education and society will depend to a large extent on the input received from the data science and related communities. Please feel free to make suggestions for ways in which you think that IDSI can make a positive impact on the development and application of Data Science in Israel and the world.
