PhD Symposium – Science and AI

The Bernstein PhD Symposium is an opportunity for junior researchers to meet their peers, share their experiences and make new connections. We strive for an inclusive and informal environment that fosters discussions and allows for an open exchange of ideas. It is organized entirely by PhD students.

This year, the keynote lectures will be about Science and AI. Nowadays, science and AI heavily influence each other. Recent scientific advancements provide valuable insights for AI development. At the same time, AI, as a powerful tool, has a significant impact on scientific research. We hope that the lectures will inspire the audience about the intertwined relationship between science and AI.
