Uncertainty and evidence
Our research group studies the management of uncertainty about knowledge in scientific assessments. This involves discussing and applying principles and methods for learning, prediction and decision analyses at different levels of knowledge.
We aim to apply principles and methods to conceptual as well as real-world problems in risk assessment, evidence synthesis and decision analysis.
The group is part of COSHE, the Computational Science for Health and Environment theme at CEC.
