Description:
This event is the final event of the virtual Skills 4 Scientists series run by the Artificial Intelligence for Scientific Discovery Network+ (AI3SD) and the Physical Sciences Data-Science Service (PSDS). This event is a virtual 2 day poster symposia on the 1st and 2nd of September (between AI3SD, PSDS & RSC-CICAG) where attendees will be invited to present their research to a range of experts from industry and academia. A number of companies have also been invited to present on the opportunities that they have to offer graduates and PhD students.
This series of virtual events is primarily aimed at late stage undergraduate or early stage postgraduate students who are studying a physical sciences subject. However, it is open to any attendees who wish to join if the subject matter is of interest to you! Please note though that many of the company talks and posters will be based around chemistry / physical sciences subject matter.
- This event will run approximately from 10:00-17:00 on both days.
- The draft Agenda can be found here.
- There will be short talks from the following organisations about their different career opportunities: AstraZeneca, Avco Systems, CCDC, CAS, CCDC, DeepMatter, Dotmatics, EPSRC, GSK, Optibrium, Royal Society of Chemistry and Sense about Science, and a talk about why to apply for PhD opportunities in the Physical Sciences.
- There will be poster sessions for all of the submitted posters to be presented.
