[staff-physics-and-astronomy-HL-UHD-UD] Action required : Departmental mini workshop AI and modelling in Physics on Wednesday March 13

[Beta NAT Secretariaat]

Dear colleagues,

Many research groups in our department (including ARCNL and Nikhef) have ongoing activities which can be broadly classified as "AI and modelling", including machine learning, numerical simulations, high-performance computing, model inference, applied statistics and so on. The approaches are often instrumental to relate theory and experiment.

With this in mind, we are organizing a mini-workshop for all departmental PIs (and their PhD students/PDs) interested in "AI and modelling in Physics", broadly understood. The idea would be to organize an away-day where participants can present the problems and methods used in their research, with plenty of time for informal discussions and "speed dating" to explore possible synergies can arise between the various groups.

If there is enough interest, we could turn this initiative into a regular event in the scientific life of the department.

When? Wednesday March 13

Where? TBA: Off-campus

Questions? Ask Chase (c.p.broedersz at vu.nl<mailto:c.p.broedersz at vu.nl>)

Registrations? Please respond to this email by Friday January 19 if you will attend, and how many group members you will bring. We need to book a location, so please let us know a.s.a.p.

Looking forward to hearing back from you!

Juan, Greg, and Chase
