artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are becoming increasingly important for the scientific community. To prepare you for this future, the Leibniz Institute of Surface Engineering (IOM) is hosting a winter school jointly with experts from the Center for Scalable Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence (ScaDS.AI) in Leipzig and Dresden.

The winter school will be a unique opportunity for you to learn the basics of ML, to gain practical experience in using common tools and to solve real-world problems. The winter school will cover a wide range of topics from AI/ML basics to data visualization and working on a high performance cluster (HPC).

The school is free of charge for participants from member institutions of the Leibniz MMS Research Network. A school dinner on Monday (Oct. 6^th) and a social activity on Wednesday (Oct. 10^th) will give plenty of opportunity to exchange and network. 

Join us for an exciting week in Leipzig from October 6th to 10th. Registration will open on July. Members of the Leibniz MMS-Network will be informed by an e-mail by Torsten Köhler from WIAS. Please note, that the event is limited to 40 places. Thus, it might be that only one to two participants of each Leibniz institute will be accepted to allow most members of the MMS network to participate.

Sincerely,

Your organizing committee
