DAWN (Data Analytics for Well-being & Neighborhoods，福祉 · 邻里 · 数据分析) 研究小组，由华东师范大学社会发展学院人口研究所刘贇喆副教授于2020年在英国牛津大学发起成立。
研究组致力于依托数智时代计算社会科学新范式，利用多源数据深度解析社会空间分异规律，以期优化城市邻里环境并提升居民福祉。目前，DAWN 已与包括英国牛津大学、帝国理工学院、伦敦大学学院 (UCL)、利兹大学、利物浦大学，美国南加州大学，以及中国北京大学、清华大学、武汉大学、华东理工大学在内的海内外知名高校研究者与团队建立了合作，构筑起跨地域、跨学科的协同研究网络。
本课题组立足于计算社会科学、人口学、地理学、公共健康与城市规划等学科交叉前沿，致力于利用多源城市时空数据与地理人工智能技术（GeoAI），深入解析城市复杂系统中的社会空间分异与不平等模式；旨在通过数据驱动的实证研究，为理解城市社会系统的演化规律与推动可持续发展，提供科学的、以人为本的循证依据。
The DAWN (Data Analytics for Well-being & Neighborhoods) Research Group was established at the University of Oxford in 2020 by Dr. Yunzhe Liu, currently an Associate Professor at the Institute of Population Research, School of Social Development, East China Normal University.
Embracing the new research paradigm of Computational Social Science in the Digital Intelligence Era, the group utilises multi-source data to deeply analyse patterns of socio-spatial disparities, aiming to optimise urban neighbourhood environments and enhance resident well-being.
Currently, DAWN has established collaborations with researchers and teams from world-renowned universities, including the University of Oxford, Imperial College London, University College London (UCL), University of Leeds, and University of Liverpool in the UK; the University of Southern California (USC) in the USA; and Peking University, Tsinghua University, Wuhan University, and East China University of Science and Technology in China, forming a cross-regional and interdisciplinary collaborative research network.
Positioned at the cutting-edge intersection of Computational Social Science, Demography, Geography, Public Health, and Urban Planning, the group utilises multi-source urban spatio-temporal data and Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) to deeply analyse patterns of socio-spatial disparities and inequality within complex urban systems. Through data-driven empirical research, the group aims to provide a scientific, human-centric, and evidence-based foundation for understanding the evolution of urban social systems and promoting sustainable development.
