The Oxford e-Research Centre (OeRC) is part of the University of Oxford in England and specialises in e-Research – the use of information technology to support existing and new forms of research across a wide range of disciplines.
The Centre was founded in 2006 and focuses on multidisciplinary projects, bringing together researchers from across Oxford University and beyond. OeRC has received EPSRC UK government funding. The Centre participated in SOCIAM: The Theory and Practice of Social Machines, led in Prof. Sir Nigel Shadbolt with Prof. David De Roure, Director OeRC, as co-investigator. OeRC is home to over 50 researchers. Disciplines the Centre is involved in are as diverse as musicology and astronomy, including international collaborations such as the Square Kilometre Array.
The Centre focuses on the use of computational technology and infrastructure to enable researchers to answer complex questions faster than would be possible using traditional research methods.
The Centre is headed by its Director, Prof. David De Roure. Prof. Ron Perrott, a visiting professor at the OeRC, was awarded an ACM Distinguished Service Award in 2016.
The collaborative Oxford CLARIN Centre is based in the Oxford e-Research Centre.
