The X-Lab draws on Carleton’s internationally recognized pre-existing strengths in digital humanities, data science, public history, curatorial studies, visualization, and our museum\/institutional\/field partnerships. The overall goal of the XLab is to foster CHI as an interdisciplinary field studying and pursuing the effective use of cultural heritage data, information, and knowledge for humanistic or scientific inquiry, problem solving, and decision making, motivated by efforts to improve human well-being.<\/strong>\u00a0 Our goal for this upcoming year: What can a cultural heritage informatics look like in Canada that is alive to the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission<\/a>?<\/p>\n

The X-Lab is led by Shawn Graham, Dept of History<\/a>. shawn dot graham at carleton dot ca<\/p>\n

RA Students<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The XLab and its community have been pleased to support the research and education of several MA and PhD students with Type A stipends. Their work has contributed to our XLab Confab, to helping set the research direction of the community, to sharing their own research within the ambit of cultural heritage informatics, and to the day-to-day behind the scenes that makes our community so vibrant.<\/p>\n
