  • Bioinformatics: Assistance with identifying solutions and performing computing with high-dimensional data   
  • Artificial intelligence and machine learning: Assistance in incorporating newly developed tools into research  
  • Data management: Consultation in design, architecture, and assistance with securing and documenting   
  • Data sharing: Consultation and assistance with expectations of funders and journals, and navigation of key platforms  
  • Spatial and geo-spatial statistics and modeling: Maintenance of extensive geodatabase and consultation and assistance with incorporation of spatial data into analyses; expertise extends to analysis of spatial data from 3-dimensonal tissue analyses   
  • Data report-back: Communities expect data and study results return, and participants in studies expect results back; the DSC will team with the CEC to use best practices for Center members
