After the successful panel discussion on the prospects of academic careers in Europe organized by YAE at the 1st Hamburg Science Summit in 2024, we had been solicited again to organize a roundtable discussion this year on the 18 September, at the 2nd Hamburg Science Summit dedicated to “Europe’s Innovation Challenge”.
Alison Noble, Oleg Ruchayskiy and Anna Fabijańska at the roundtable discussion
The YAE panel entitled “Science by AI: Promise or threat?” was organized and moderated by Katalin Solymosi (Outgoing Chair, YAE), and featured Philip Campbell (Former Editor-in-Chief, Springer Nature), Anna Fabijańska (Co-Chair, SAPEA Working Group AI in Science), Alison Noble (Vice President and Chair AI Working Group, Royal Society) and Oleg Ruchayskiy (CEO, Prophy AI).
A roundable discussion hosted by the Max Planck Society entitled ‘Scientific policy advice: Between policy relevance and scientific independence‘ featured former YAE Chair, and former Chair of the Group of Chief Scientific Advisors to the European Commission, Nicole Grobert as panellist.
This year’s event featured among others prestigious speakers of the European science policy landscape like Manuel Heitor (Chair, EU Horizon Expert Group), Maria Leptin (President, ERC) and Robbert Dijkgraaf (President elect, ISC). On 19 September, the Körber European Research Prize was handed over. For further details and registration to the event please check the homepage of the event.
