Join a Working Group and Leverage Your Expertise
The SCIANCE project is inviting experts from the European AI in Science community to express their interest in joining the project AI in Science Working Groups (AISWGs). The working groups will provide structured input to the Strategic Research & Innovation Agenda (SRIA) through co-creation workshops, online consultations and iterative reviews, helping to identify and prioritise disciplinary and cross-domain AI in Science research and innovation priorities. Contribution from experts from the community in the working groups will ensure that the SRIA reflects the priorities of the scientific communities to strategically inform AI-enabled research across Europe.
By joining the AISWGs, experts will contribute to shaping the future of AI in Science in Europe, supporting a coordinated, sustainable and community-driven foundation for the Resource for AI Science in Europe (RAISE) initiative. Active involvement provides a unique opportunity to influence the strategic direction of AI-enabled scientific research, foster interdisciplinary collaboration, and help consolidate Europe’s AI in Science ecosystem for maximum scientific impact.
