Michael Stifel Center Jena

We are happy to invite you to our second event of "MSCJ presents ..." with these fantastic speakers: --- Prof. Dr. Tobias Koch (Psychological Methodology) --- Prof. Koch's research focuses on longitudinal data analysis (including panel and intensive longitudinal data), Bayesian estimation, psychometrics, measurement theory, multitrait-multimethod analysis and causal inference, either individually or in any combination. He also uses machine learning and simulation-based methods in his research. https://lnkd.in/ehkC8Dkr --- Dr. Kevin MaikJablonka (CZS Research Group "Polymers in Energy Applications") --- The discovery of materials and molecules is a tedious, expensive, and serendipitous process. An important reason for that is that it requires a lot of experience and tacit knowledge to become good at designing new compounds. In the group of Dr. Jablonka, data-driven techniques are leveraged to address this information bottleneck to accelerate the development of materials that work in the real world. https://lnkd.in/eVJkDQMR In "MSCJ presents ...", members of Michael Stifel Center Jena, researchers from their working groups, researchers interested in MSCJ, and researchers in Jena with topics in the scope of MSCJ introduce theirselves and their work in short talks (30 min incl. discussion). The presentations are followed by the opportunity for further discussion. The aim is to meet exciting people and ideas (in a discipline close to the own or with a new unexpected perspective) and to find collaboration partners for solving research questions that could be adressed best with perspectives from different disciplines. "MSCJ presents ..." is planned to be a series of events, hold twice in each lecture period. In the winter semester, there will be one event at the DLR institute of Data Science, to meet the researchers and research topics there. For the second event we are in contact with our members Dr. Nina Hahn (UKJ, Department of Neurology) and Dr. Melike Dönertaş (CZS Research Group "AI in Microbiome and Aging Research"). Details will follow. We are looking forward to meeting many of you.

The 2 days AI for Good Global Summit 2024 starts tomorrow 🙌🏻 #Reminder ➡️ May 31 - our workshop "Forecasting the future: #AI in early warning systems" ✨ as well as Markus Reichstein on the main stage ✨ Live & in livestream: http://shorturl.at/eopKY ; http://shorturl.at/aqrz5

JenaVersum invites you to the 1st user's day "OpenIRIS for JenaVersum". The event offers an excellent opportunity to find out about the potential of OpenIRIS, a web-based open source platform that provides an overview of existing research infrastructures in the JenaVersum network, transparently displays terms of use and enables bookings for more than 100 devices so far. In addition to getting to know details about the platform, you can exchange experiences with other users and learn from them.

Registration is open for this year's **Thuringian RDM Days**: "Becoming literate in the Data Universe - From data literacy to the application of AI", 18. & 19.06.2024 online "Becoming literate in the Data Universe - From data literacy to the application of AI" lnkd.in/ePfxKMBg Day 1: Introduction to #ResearchDataManagement (RDM) and projects, initiatives and services in #Thuringia Day 2: #DFG keynote on the influence of #AI on #ResearchFunding in Germany as well as sessions on the interconnection of #RDM, #DataLiteracy & #ArtificialIntelligence Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena Universität Erfurt Fachhochschule Erfurt Bauhaus-Universität Weimar Hochschule für Musik Franz Liszt Weimar Technische Universität Ilmenau Hochschule Nordhausen University of Applied Sciences Hochschule Schmalkalden Duale Hochschule Gera-Eisenach

We are happy to invite you to our first event of "MSCJ pesents ..." with these fantastic speakers: --- Prof. Dr. Christian Eggeling (Superresolution Microscopy) --- Together with his team, Prof. Eggeling develops advanced optical microscopy for the investigation of molecular organization and dynamics in cells, especially on the cellular plasma membrane. Highlights are the optimization of superresolution STED microscopy and its combination with single-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy tools such as fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), use of adaptive optics for deep-tissue investigations, advancements in single-particle tracking (using fluorescence, interferometric scattering (iSCAT) and novel superresolution MINFLUX microscopy), the detailed investigation of lipid membrane heterogeneity such as lipid rafts, and biological applications of all of these tools for investigations of multiple biomedical issues such as within the Excellence Cluster “Balance of the Microverse”, the Collaborative Research Center 1278 PolyTarget, infection diagnostics or immunology. https://lnkd.in/eDMAPpqu https://lnkd.in/encZv4ir --- Prof. Dr. Edda Humprecht (Communication Science with a Focus on Digitalization and the Public Sphere) --- The research of Prof. Humprecht focuses on the question, how digital political communication in different countries is shaped by opportunity structures. She analyzes different forms of online communication, including comments in social media, videos and news, and uses empirical typologies to explain differences among countries. She is also interested in how recipients in different countries can be empowered against manipulative communication such as disinformation and conspiracy narratives. https://lnkd.in/ecSE_e32 https://lnkd.in/eGHyEjwE In "MSCJ presents ...", members of Michael Stifel Center Jena, researchers from their working groups, researchers interested in MSCJ, and researchers in Jena with topics in the scope of MSCJ will introduce theirselves and their work in short talks (20 min + 10 min discussion, 2-3 talks per session). The presentations are followed by the opportunity for further discussion. The aim is to meet exciting people and ideas (in a discipline close to the own or with a new unexpected perspective) and to find collaboration partners for solving research questions that could be adressed best with perspectives from different disciplines. "MSCJ presents ..." is planned to be a series of events, hold twice in each lecture period. The next event will be in week 26 (end of June) Tuesday or Thursday 16:00. Details will follow. We are looking forward to meeting many of you.

The March 2024 issue of the research magazine LICHTGEDANKEN of Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena outlines how artificial intelligence is transforming our lives, and what it is and is not (yet) capable of doing. In the feature »Of machines and men«, Joachim Denzler and Clemens Beckstein explain how the different forms of AI work and discuss the limits of AI. Various projects at the university are presented that work with AI in: - climate research: Markus Reichstein & Joachim Denzler (ELLIS unit Jena) - historical science: Clemens Beckstein & Robert Gramsch-Stehfest (MEPHisto); Sander Münster (4D-Browser) - chemistry: Christoph Steinbeck & Achim Zielesny (DECIMER.ai); Kevin Maik Jablonka (Polymers in Energy Applications) - medicine: Orlando Guntinas-Lichius (Sensorized Surgery); Marc Thilo Figge (Applied Systems Biology) - geophysics: Nina Kukowski & Alexander Breuer & Martin Bücker (Earth Observations) - assyriology: Adrian Heinrich & Johannes Hackl (Hilprecht Collection) - computer science: Joachim Giesen & Alexander Breuer (Interactive Inference) - administration: Marianne Mauch (openDVA) Further articles illuminate the perspectives of Dr. Edda Humprecht (communication science), Christoph Demmerling (philosophy) and Volker Michael Jänich & Viktoria Schrön (law). In an interview, Christoph Steinbeck, the university's Vice-President for Digitalization, outlines the position the University of Jena has adopted on the challenges AI presents for researchers and teaching staff, and explains how the researchers are contributing to the development of AI approaches through the German National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) . https://lnkd.in/euxyXz4Y
