We would love to talk to you, because research is complex and we know from experience that the devil is in the detail. Our team holds a wide range of competencies, and we will set the consultancy team on a case-to-case basis.

A meeting is free and without obligations. We do not always have to meet in person - but we would like to come and visit you, if possible. But we can also meet over Zoom, MS Teams or similar.

Additionally for PhD students


You are more than welcome to contact CLAAUDIA. However, the university also provides support on scientific computing, mathematics and statistics through a service named PhD Consult.

Their focus is especially to aid efficient implementation and structuring of computational tasks, provide assistance on mathematical issues and identify appropriate statistical methods and methodologies.

Contact the team at phdconsult@aau.dk or visit the PhD Consult website.

We work in close collaboration, so we might solve your case in a joint effort.

Our approach

Case oriented

Case oriented


We work on a case-to-case basis to identify the right solution for your specific subject area. We engage ourselves in the process, because knowing the problem is crucial to finding the right solution. Then we pick from the toolbox to match the needs.

Broad scope for solutions

Broad scope for solutions


We think across systems, and although we may not have the right solution for you in-house, we do have knowledge about research infrastructures at AAU, as well as other universities, commercial companies or similar.

Think across
