Smart Society

Professor James Gleeson led the collaborative effort to generate the models that guided the majority of NPHET recommendations to government on mobility restrictions, lockdowns, and easing restrictions during the Coivid-19 pandemic. The work was supported by a team in University of Limerick’s Mathematics Applications Consortium for Science and Industry (MACSI) and other Irish institutions.

The Centre for Research Training in Foundations of Data Science, funded by Science Foundation Ireland and Skillnet Ireland and supported and facilitated by Technology Ireland ICT Skillnet, is a large-scale collaborative initiative between the University of Limerick, University College Dublin, and Maynooth University.
