The programme will offer a workshop, inspiring examples and opportunities.
You can register to the different parts of the conference separately. We want Materials for Tomorrow to be a meeting where different perspectives and challenges meet, and where we can highlight all aspects of materials science. Therefore, we always organize a poster exhibition and a photo competition.
The conference consists of three parts
- A taste of AI in materials science. In a pre-conference workshop, you will understand basics on AI, and work on and see demonstration on material related examples. Day 1, at 9:00 – 11:50, led by Leon Boschman from Chalmers e-commons
- Inspiring examples. National and international researchers share their latest findings on artificial intelligence and its use in materials science.
- Opportunities. You will have opportunities to establish collaborations and learn how to explore AI in your research.
