The last two days we had a fantastic new edition of #agit2025 conference at @Z_GIS1. We had a full house and two fantastic keynote speakers @DrGeoff2 and @AnahidBasiri! Thanks everyone for helping to make this reality and thanks to the scientific community f
More women only use the initial as first name on their postboxes (perhaps for safety?) Or "low-performing students" skipping an optional advanced test more often... These are examples of #Missingness At #Random where you miss data linked to another variable. @datadiverdom (yes,…
Our brilliant researcher Dominick Sutton’s paper “Exploring a Diagnostic Test for Missingness at Random”, co-authored with @AnahidBasiri and Ziqi Li, is now published in Mathematics! 🎉📄 Is it open source, so please feel free to have a look lnkd.in/e-E9aTXc
Pleased to share our paper won this year's best paper award at #AGILE2025 🎉 Find the full paper here: agile-giss.copernicus.org/articles/6/11/… Congratulations Joe & @GSDSglasgow I missed some sessions but I enjoyed meeting with colleagues & friends in Dresden #LLM #geospatial #proximity
✨Joe Shingleton and @AnahidBasiri are finalists for Best Paper at #AGILE2025!✨ Their paper, "How close is 'close'? An analysis of the spatial characteristics of perceived proximity using Large Language Models", is up for the honour this Friday, 13 June. Best of luck to you!
On my way to Dresden to attend #AGILE2025 & meet my colleagues & friends How much I love this #conference? Well, I am going to miss #LondonTechWeek from today! A lot on #AI For full disclosure I attended the first days plus a reception by our own @DataLabScotland @UKGovScotland

I am delighted to join today's event of #CrossSectorHubScot and present why & how @UofG_CDSAI facilitate cross sector collaborative #research & #Innovation in #AI for #Healthcare
Professor Dame Anna Dominiczak @UofGRegiusAnna @CSO_Scotland opens the @acmedsci #CrossSectorHubScot launch event highlighting the main aim of enhancing and supporting inter-sector engagement and collaboration to solve the major challenges facing healthcare
I would’ve posted about this sooner, but I needed time to come to terms with the fact I didn't take the best paper's chocolate home… a quick (belated) update from #LBS2025! 👇👇 A couple of weeks ago, I had the honour to give the keynote at the 19th international #conference of…



If #conferences were buildings, #LBS2025 would be my grandparents’ house. There must be pictures of me that I can't find anywhere from my presentation as a PhD student, postdoc, up to chairing one during lockdowns! This year I’m giving a keynote but let’s be honest—I’m mostly…

Our lab lead @AnahidBasiri spoke at the Scottish Parliament last month on AI and the UK-EU Trade & Cooperation Agreement. 🧠 Watch the full session here ⬇️ scottishparliament.tv/meeting/consti… #DataScience #AI #ScottishParliament #UniversityofGlasgow
Yet another amazing #GISRUK2025. Massive thanks to @levijohnwolf & his colleagues organising it! Great job 👏 👏 👏 #GISRockStarts Almost 50 participants from @GeoDSGlasgow @UofGGES including MSc students, PhD, postdoc researchers, academics. Great to be @GISRUK great to see…




And that time of the year when I go around and hug people! I missed the first day of #GISRUK2025 @GISRUK but our team have been well representing @GeoDSGlasgow team! First, ladies and gentlemen please stand up for a massive mexican wave for our alumnus @Guy_S_Solomon 🥁🥁🥁…


There are photos from our regular away days like this one in this tweet👇But the reality is we remember our away days by the fun social events... "The one we throw axes, the one with cocktails for the holes in one... This one was: "The one we unleashed our inner Picasso!"
The Geospatial Data Science team Away Day was a success! Our team travelled from all over the UK for two days of meetings, workshops, and presentations. #GeospatialDataScienceGroup #GeospatialDataScience #GeospatialData #DataScience #UniveristyofGlasgow #UofG
