The image analysis and visualization group applied jointly for a grant in the DFG priority programme “Scaleable Visual Analytics”. The joint goal is to analyze and visually explore patient cohort data from large public health studies. In particular, we cooperate with Prof. Vötzke (University of Greifswald) to explore data of the SHiP study (social health in Pommern). Related news to the SHiP study can be found here: http://idw-online.de/pages/de/news410848 and http://idw-online.de/pages/de/news363578.
