Event Details

Are you interested in research at the interface of ecology and AI? Please read on… With our strong LEC-based ecology grouping, UKCEH (through CEEDS), the establishment of MARS (Mathematics for AI in Real-World Systems), and DSI, we have critical mass to create a hub at Lancaster around AI for Ecology (and adjacent fields).

To create a new interdisciplinary hub, we will run a 1-day workshop on Monday 13th October 09.30-16.30 in the LEC Training Rooms on “Harnessing AI to Accelerate Solutions for Biodiversity in Crisis”.

The hub will help us to develop new interdisciplinary projects (or find solutions to old ones), target new funding opportunities, and capitalise on excitement in this area within the student community with a visible external presence.

Please sign up on Eventbrite to be on the list for further information. We are very keen to involve researchers across disciplines and career stages and particularly encourage early career researchers (PhDs and upwards) to join.

Refreshments and lunch will be provided. The workshop will have a professional facilitator and is a collaboration between MARS, DSI and CEEDS, with funding from BBSRC AIBIO-UK.
