About CORE Lab
CORE Lab is dedicated to leveraging computational social science—data analysis, machine learning, and advanced modeling—to address real-world challenges. We focus on projects that uplift nonhuman animals, vulnerable populations, and local organizations.
Our goal is to empower communities with data-driven insights, support animal initiatives, and foster positive change for those who need it most.
