The Imaging and Sensing for Archaeology, Art history and Conservation (ISAAC) research centre focuses on developing new instruments and data science methods tailored to cultural heritage research.
It contributes to the research infrastructure for heritage science through the ISAAC Mobile Lab by bringing the latest instruments to objects and sites and through the ISAAC DigiLab by offering data analysis provisions to the community.
This talk gives an overview and highlights of the latest developments through example ISAAC Mobile Lab activities, from participation in providing access through IPERION HS MOLAB around Europe to UK based activities, and from in situ investigation of wall painting to manuscripts. Examples from a recently completed AHRC funded project “AI for DigiLab” with a number of UK and US partners that has helped to shape ISAAC DigiLab will also be used to illustrate how the combined Mobile lab and DigiLab provision can reduce barriers to access to expertise and advanced scientific instruments.
About the Speaker:
Professor Haida Liang
Professor Haida Liang is Distinguished Professor at Nottingham Trent University, Head of Imaging and Sensing for Archaeology, Art history and Conservation (ISAAC) research centre. She studied Physics at University of Sydney followed by a PhD in Astrophysics at Australian National University. She continued her research in astrophysics in France and at the University of Bristol before changing her research career to heritage science after a brief period at the National Gallery in London. ISAAC Lab is focussed on the development of non-invasive imaging, spectroscopy and remote sensing instruments and data science methods for cultural heritage research and practice, as well as interdisciplinary research in art conservation, history and archaeology, which led to the recent Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Advancing Cultural Heritage Science. Her research interest also includes interdisciplinary research in historical global connections.
