This multi-disciplinary and diverse team is composed of 14 scientists, engineers, and social scientists from five universities and research centers in the Valencian Region of Spain. It is co-led by Dr. Nuria Oliver and Dr. J. Alberto Conejero. The team has worked intensively between March 2022 and April 2022 on the use of data and AI to help fight COVID-19, in collaboration with the Presidency of the Valencian Government of Spain. In terms of resources, it has been largely a volunteer, purpose-driven effort, leveraging the resources of the respective institutions. It has also counted on philanthropic contributions from technology companies and has obtained three competitive grants to further support the efforts.
