Call for papers: Emerging Topics in Artificial Intelligence (ETAI) 2022

AUGUST 21-25, 2022 ||| The ETAI Conference will be held in San Diego, California, August 21-25, 2022, and provides a forum for a highly interdisciplinary community combining artificial intelligence with photonics, microscopy, active matter, biomedicine, and brain connectivity. Importantly, this conference includes topics outside the core expertise of optics and photonics. Photonics and machine learning have become decisively interdisciplinary, and we expect additional synergy and inspiration through this open-minded approach.

ETAI actively engages with industry to foster commercialization and provides networking opportunities for young and established researchers. By bringing experts from different fields and backgrounds together, ETAI provides new fundamental insights and identifies technological applications as well as commercialization opportunities.

Prospects for your own research and career planning through commercial exploitation

DECEMBER,  2, 2021 ||| The innovation cluster Smart Medical Devices and Therapies of biosaxony e.V. and the Transfer Centre for Bioactive Matter of the University of Leipzig present themselves on the occasion of the Dies academicus and show what potential the university and regional research landscape offers and how this can be made usable for the regional economy.

In order to address the major issues of the future, such as increasing resource scarcity, basic planetary security or medical care, economic cycles must be completely rethought and realigned. This requires innovative research that enables the development of environmentally compatible, sustainable and smart materials, methods and technologies.

But how can innovative research be transferred into sustainable economic sectors? How can scientific expertise be utilised for personalised, smart medical products and therapies?
And what opportunities does this open up for personal research work and career planning?

Speakers
Dr Susanne Ebitsch (Managing Director of the Centre for Bioactive Matter b-ACTmatter, University of Leipzig) and André Hofmann (Managing Director of biosaxony e. V.)

Kick-off event Interfaculty Centre for Bioactive Matter b-ACTmatter

NOVEMBER, 3, 2021 ||| The interfaculty research and transfer centre for bioactive matter, b-ACT matter, is one of the projects prioritised by the federal government and the state of Saxony as part of the funding guideline for strengthening transformation dynamics in coal-fired power plant sites (“STARK”).
The centre’s launch event took place at the Biotechnological-Biomedical Centre on 3 November 2021.
