We're a dedicated team of talented individuals.

Each team of Rhodes Scholars and Oxford students consists of a mix of technical (e.g. DPhil/MSc students in AI, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics) and non-technical consultants or domain experts, depending on the nature of the problem. For example, a team working on a public health project may have an epidemiologist, a junior doctor, and a public policy student.
