CAMBRIDGE AI CLUB FOR BIOMEDICINE

The AI Club is a new initiative to bring together the Biomedical AI and Machine Learning community in Cambridge, to discuss common themes and explore different topics and methodologies. The sessions open conversations to inform, inspire, and connect researchers at all levels, on topics within computational biology, AI and bioinformatics.

Each session will involve two talks, followed by an interactive discussion and networking. Talks will be focused on methods and cover the details that so often get hidden in the supplement. We welcome scientists from across Cambridge to join us on the first Thursday of every month, for talks, discussion, and networking over beer and pizza. Events take place in the Lecture Theatre, Jeffrey Cheah Biomedical Centre, Puddicombe Way, Cambridge CB2 0AW. No need to register in advance – just turn up!

The AI Club is a joint initiative, currently organised by Namshik Han’s group at the Milner Therapeutics Institute and Florian Markowetz’s group at Cancer Research UK. Greg Hannon’s and Mireia Crispin-Ortuzar’s groups also support this initiative and we welcome anyone who would like to help, whatever lab/group/company they are from! If you are interested in getting involved in the committee, please email Holly Giles.
