What is TRAIN?
The Tri-Regio AI
Networking Symposium (TRAIN) is an interdisciplinary event aimed at fostering
collaboration among computational scientists working on the development and
application of AI methods in the Upper Rhine Valley. Building on the collaborative
spirit of previous Tri-Regio initiatives, the
symposium is organized by the CIBSS Center for
Biological Signalling Studies to advance the use of
cutting-edge AI technologies in the life sciences.
Who Should Attend?
Researchers and data scientists from academia &
industry developing and applying AI methods are encouraged to join.
Why Participate?
TRAIN offers valuable opportunities for presenting,
networking, or seeking collaborators.
Ø Gain insights from experts
in AI and computational science.
Ø Present your work and
receive constructive feedback.
Ø Connect with peers in the
Upper Rhine Valley to foster future collaborations.
