AI and the Arts: Languages & Linguistics
This internal event is part of our AI and the Arts series. It will highlight and map out expertise and strengths at the intersection of AI / data science and languages / linguistics at the University of Manchester. This highly interdisciplinary area opens up a number of exciting possibilities for research, teaching, knowledge exchange, and business...
Learning Operators (Atlas Talk)
Join us for the next Computer Science Seminar with speaker Siddhartha Mishra Abstract: Operators are mappings between infinite-dimensional spaces. They arise in a variety of context, particularly in scientific computing, where the input-output map for the underlying differential equations (ordinary or partial) is an operator. Learning operators...

Training Course on Visualisation & quantification of tomographic datasets
A 2 day training course covering theory and computer-based practical works using the Thermo Scientific™ Amira-Avizo Software. Lab/synchrotron X-ray tomography has emerged as one of the most important techniques for research in a wide range of applications including healthcare, energy, food and geology. Advances in the quality of X-ray beams,...
Connectivity & inclusivity in Higher Education -Pilot Study 2
Would you like to make your work easier, more inclusive and appealing to more people? Why not come along to this interesting and innovative workshop organised by the Women In Environmental Sciences (WiES) network titled: Connectivity and inclusivity in Higher Education EDIA. There is a great need for equality, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility...
Training Course on Advanced Scripting and Batching of Tomographic Datasets
Although X-ray tomography is an attractive characterisation technique in materials science, it generates a huge amount of data at a fast rate and it can be extremely time consuming to process the data manually. A great benefit to creating scripts and plugins in Avizo is the ability to reuse a workflow on more than one image or to develop a bespoke...
Humans In The Loop: The Future of Design and Digital Manufacturing
We are hosting an exciting cross-theme event between the Digital Futures Human-Centred Design, Industry 5.0, and Employment & Productivity themes. As we move towards more sophisticated automation, it is increasingly important that everything we design has human understanding, behaviour and ethics at its centre. Researchers at the University are...
Advances In Data Science Conference 2022
Our conference is returning in June 2022 as the Advances in Data Science and AI conference and will be held online and in Manchester. After physical events in 2017, 2018 and 2019 and a quickly re-designed online event in 2020, we took a break in 2021 as the pandemic uncertainty continued. We are now returning on 20 and 21 June 2022 with the Advances...
ECR Symposium on the environments impact on health
An in-person event to connect researchers in the area of the environments effect on health About this event Health and well-being are intimately linked to the state of the environment. At The University of Manchester, we have lots of early career researchers working on issues relating to the environment and its effect on health, but they are...
