The University of Chicago Data Science Institute’s AI+Science initiative, in partnership with the Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation (IMSI), the James Franck Institute (JFI) at the University of Chicago, and the Institute for Foundations of Data Science (IFDS), will launch its inaugural AI+Science Summer School in August 2022. The goal of the AI+Science Summer School is to introduce a new generation of diverse, interdisciplinary graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and researchers to the emerging field of AI+Science. The AI+Science Summer School will help build community and spur new research directions focused on AI-enabled scientific discovery across the physical and biological sciences. The program features lectures, panels, hands-on coding sessions, and poster sessions. The featured workshop speakers include cutting-edge researchers both from UChicago and other institutions who are engaging in rigorous work at the intersection of AI and the natural sciences in a range of domains. The AI+Science Summer School will serve as one of the inaugural activities under the UChicago Data Science Institute to establish and build the AI+Science community, both on the UChicago campus and beyond. Travel scholarships for participating students lower the barrier for participation to students who might not otherwise be able to attend, and serve the mission stated above by including as many capable and qualified participants as possible in this effort to advance the field of AI+Science while simultaneously building community and providing opportunity.The goal of the AI+Science Summer School is to introduce a new generation of diverse, interdisciplinary graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and researchers to the emerging field of AI+Science. The topics covered in the Summer School will focus on four core themes at the heart of this emerging paradigm of scientific discovery: AI uncovering new laws of nature; AI guiding scientific measurement; physics-informed machine learning; and scientific discovery advancing AI frontiers. The AI+Science Summer School will help build community and spur new research directions focused on AI-enabled scientific discovery across the physical and biological sciences. Topics of the summer school will include: physics-informed and -constrained neural networks; AI for geosciences and climate modeling; AI-guided search in chemistry and molecular biology; tensor networks for classical and quantum systems; active learning and AI-guided experimental design. Travel grants will be awarded to 10-15 participating students in the AI+Science Summer School. The participants who are awarded travel scholarships will be at least 50% women, other underrepresented minorities, and first generation college students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

芝加哥大学数据科学研究所的AI+Science倡议与数学与统计创新研究所(IMSI)、芝加哥大学詹姆斯·弗兰克研究所(JFI)和数据科学基础研究所(IFDS)合作，将于2022年8月启动其首届AI+科学暑期学校。AI+科学暑期学校的目标是向新兴的AI+科学领域引进新一代多元化、跨学科的研究生、博士后学者和研究人员。AI+科学暑期学校将帮助建立社区，并推动新的研究方向，重点是物理和生物科学中的人工智能启用的科学发现。该计划的特点是讲座、小组讨论、动手编写代码和海报会议。专题研讨会的演讲者包括来自芝加哥大学和其他机构的尖端研究人员，他们在一系列领域从事人工智能和自然科学的严谨工作。AI+科学暑期学校将作为UChicago数据科学研究所的首批活动之一，在UChicago校园和其他地方建立和建立AI+Science社区。为参与的学生提供的旅行奖学金降低了那些本来可能无法参加的学生的参与门槛，并通过包括尽可能多的有能力和合格的参与者来服务于上述使命，推动AI+科学领域的发展，同时建立社区并提供机会。AI+科学暑期学校的目标是将新一代多样化的、跨学科的研究生、博士后学者和研究人员引入新兴的AI+科学领域。暑期班涵盖的主题将集中在这一新兴科学发现范式的核心四个核心主题上：人工智能揭示新的自然规律；人工智能指导科学测量；物理信息机器学习；以及推进人工智能前沿的科学发现。AI+科学暑期学校将帮助建立社区，并推动新的研究方向，重点是物理和生物科学中的人工智能启用的科学发现。暑期班的主题将包括：物理信息和受限神经网络；用于地球科学和气候建模的人工智能；人工智能引导的化学和分子生物学搜索；经典和量子系统的张量网络；主动学习和人工智能引导的实验设计。参加AI+科学暑期学校的10-15名学生将获得旅行津贴。获得旅行奖学金的参与者将至少有50%是女性、其他代表性不足的少数族裔和第一代大学生。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
