Centre for Digital Trust and Society Seed Corn Showcase 2023-24
The Centre for Digital Trust and Society (The Centre) is excited to present the CDTS Seed Corn Showcase. This event celebrates the groundbreaking achievements of the five research projects funded in our 2023-2024 Seed Corn Funding. Our scope includes cybersecurity, but we also see digital security as part of a set of broader issues of trust and...
The University of Manchester Research Institute (UMRI) Pump Prime Call Launch Event
The University of Manchester Research Institute (UMRI) will be launching the latest round of pump-priming awards in January 2025. The call aims to encourage collaboration and provide support for activities that will lead to an increase in successful interdisciplinary research. Awards of up to £50K available, you’ll have one year to explore...
Digital Trust and Security Seminar Series: Dr. Ben Collier
UK police forces are increasingly adopting 'influence policing', a form of digital influence campaign that uses internet technologies and behavioral psychology to prevent crime. Initially developed for counter-radicalization, it now targets a range of areas, including online child abuse, knife crime, and cybercrime, raising ethical and theoretical...
Training Course on Visualisation & quantification of tomographic datasets
A 2 day in person training course covering theory and computer-based practical works using the Thermo Scientific™ Amira-Avizo Software. Lab/synchrotron X-ray tomography has emerged as one of the most important techniques for research in a wide range of applications including healthcare, energy, food and geology. Advances in the quality of X-ray...
Training Course on In situ experiments and Digital Volume Correlation
Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...
Digital Trust and Security Seminar Series: David Kennedy
The next generation of the internet is on its way, set to transform how we connect and interact online. Join David Kennedy, Director of Arkenox Ltd., to explore the benefits of IPv6 and learn how to safeguard its growth while fostering its scalability. This event invites participants from all disciplines and backgrounds to come together, fostering...
Training Course on Advanced Scripting and Batching of Tomographic Datasets
Although X-ray tomography is an attractive characterisation technique in materials science, it generates a huge amount of data at a fast rate and it can be extremely time consuming to process the data manually. A great benefit to creating scripts and plugins in Avizo is the ability to reuse a workflow on more than one image or to develop a bespoke...
Digital Trust and Security Seminar Series: Prof Jakob Demant
Join Prof Jakob Demant as he explores the rise of specialized platforms and online behaviors, driven primarily by young people using multiple platforms to separate their activities, with some parts intentionally hidden even in public spaces. This has led to the creation of distinct spaces for specific content sharing, potentially fostering new...
