On Thursday the 23rd of October, the fourth edition of our PhD networking event is taking place. This time organized by the PhDs themselves. The event starts with a selection of hands-on tutorials on how AI and mathematics can be combined. After a little break, we continue with a selection of talks by PhDs and other junior researchers. We end the day with informal discussions and drinks for which everyone is free to bring a poster.
All PhD students/Postdocs doing research in mathematics and AI, as well as those interested in these topics, are welcome to attend.
Want to give a talk? Tell us in the registration form.
Do you have a poster lying around? Bring it for the extra discussion
It doesn’t have to be about something new or state of the art. Just something you’d be happy to talk about.Â
Registration
Registration is open and free of charge.
