Automation of research processes with LLMs and AI

Event Description

SciLifeLab is thrilled to invite you to the symposium ‘Automation of research processes with LLMs and AI’, to be held on March 6 at Eva & Georg Klein lecture hall, Biomedicum, Karolinska Institutet Campus Solna.

The purpose of the symposium is practical knowledge sharing, inspiration, and reflection on the future of scientific processes in life sciences and health research. Academic, healthcare, and industry researchers working within the broad life sciences are welcome to attend.

More and more AI-based tools are currently being integrated in scientific research processes, from simple academic text editing tools to automated labs empowered by large language models (LLMs) running experiments and making scientific conclusions. For researchers in life sciences and health, developments in the AI technologies are important because of the high potential, large monetary investments, but also expectations about future breakthroughs.

This one-day event offers an opportunity for the researchers to hear about specific examples of incorporating Large Language Models (LLMs) and other recent developments in foundational AI models in research workflows as well as to discuss the future of scientific research processes with this new technology present.

We will start the morning with inspirational talks about new advances in research workflow automation. During lunch, there will be a possibility to network and discuss different perspectives with other attendees. After lunch we plan to have interactive sessions where the audience will have an opportunity to share and discuss visions and expectations, including spontaneous flash/pop-up talks by the attendees.

The talks of the morning session will be livestreamed through Zoom. The rest of the event is on-site in Biomedicum only.
