Computers are part of almost every facet of our lives.
In the School of Computing Sciences, we research the application of computational techniques to areas as diverse as biology, insurance, medicine, images and speech.
In doing this, we collaborate with multi-national companies such as Apple, Disney and Aviva, as well as partner research institutes on Norwich Research Park, other international universities, and other UEA Schools.
Our research is mostly in the applications of computers, but built on a solid theoretical foundation. To find out what we do, please see Research Laboratories. Our research is funded from several sources, including the UK Research Councils, the EU, the NHS, Government sources and industry.
Our research informs and influences our teaching which is vital in a fast-moving field such as computing.

RECENTLY AWARDED RESEARCH GRANTS:
£354k from EPSRC awarded to Dr. Rudy Lapeer for 12-month research project focused on person-specific childbirth simulator and digital twin
An EPSRC Health Technologies Connectivity Award for the value of £354,094.40 has been awarded to the ‘A digital twin of childbirth: Introducing healthcare technologies in obstetrics’ research project, led by Dr Lapeer.
The aim of the project is to create a person-specific childbirth simulator, capable of predicting a childbirth outcome before the actual event. This will be accomplished by using the already developed BirthView childbirth simulator in conjunction with fetal MRI obtained shortly before the expected delivery, to accurately reconstruct the feto-maternal anatomy.
