kennedy+swan - "The Red Queen Effect"

New technologies make it possible to collect, visualize, and analyze data from inside the human body. kennedy+swan explore how machines are being trained to recognize and classify human tissue and to diagnose potential diseases using an artificial medical gaze.

BIFOLD Colloquium 14/2025

AI is reshaping neurosurgery—from smarter diagnostics to real-time surgical guidance. Dietmar Frey explores how supervised, unsupervised, reinforcement, and generative learning are driving progress in image analysis, outcome prediction, and precision surgery. He also addresses key hurdles like trust, validation, and data diversity.

BLISS SPEAKER SERIES #25 AI: DeepMind - A. Edwards

Ashley Edwards, is currently a Senior Research Scientist at Google DeepMind and will discuss "Generative World Models", lasting approximately 45 minutes. After the talk, seize the opportunity to connect with fellow AI enthusiasts to share ideas and questions while enjoying free drinks and pizza

Lunch Talk: From Motion to Meaning: Learning the Statistical Structure of Atomic Interactions

Stefan Chmiela from the Machine Learning for Molecular Simulation in Quantum Chemistry group will talk about “From Motion to Meaning: Learning the Statistical Structure of Atomic Interactions”. In this talk Stefan Chmiela will introduce generative, physics-informed models that learn the coarse-grained evolution of atomic systems, enabling fast, thermodynamically consistent simulations that capture slow dynamics and extend quantum-level accuracy to realistic materials and molecular environments.
