Impact stories
The Turing works with a range of partners with far-reaching, real-world impact across sectors
Co-designing computing
High-performance computing (HPC) environments such as data centres can be ill-equipped to deal with data science tasks, so Turing researchers collaborated with Intel to co-design better architecture for their HPC systems
Towards a greener grid
Turing researchers and doctoral students contributed to a new solar forecasting system for National Grid, which is 33% more accurate at day-ahead forecasts, aiding in more efficient balancing of supply and demand and lowering consumer costs
Augmenting clinical decision-making
Working with the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, Turing researchers have been developing machine learning methods that could dramatically improve the accuracy of clinical assessments of people with cystic fibrosis
Understanding urban air quality
Turing researchers are working with the Greater London Authority to use machine learning and statistical methodology to better analyse air pollution sensor data, design better policy interventions, and improve urban quality of life
