The AI@ORU research seminar series
At Örebro University, we truly believe that AI and autonomous systems will help solve some of our biggest societal challenges as well as make life better for billions of people around the world. That’s why we love what we do. Our aim with the research seminar series AI@ORU is to raise awareness of the breadth of perspectives on AI found at Örebro University, and to facilitate and inspire new collaborations.
AI@ORU, 14 November: Workshop on AI and Life Sciences
14 November, 09:00–19:30, Innovasalen (Labbet).
Welcome to a research meeting at the intersection of AI and the Life Sciences! Encounter inspirational research, participate in the discussion, and meet your future collaboration partners. Bring a poster to the evening session and network with other researchers active – and/or interested – in the intersection between AI and the Life Sciences.
We will start at 9:00 with talks until 16:30 and continue with a poster session until 19:30. The programme includes two keynote talks and eight contributed talks. The entire programme is free of charge, but places are limited.
If you have questions, do not hesitate to email marcus.krantz@oru.se or pedro.zuidberg-dos-martires@oru.se.
