In-depth Dialogue丨bringing Together the Scientific Research Pioneers of Huazhong University of Science and Technology/Shanghai AI Lab/Shanghai Jiaotong University to Explore the Growth and Breakthroughs Behind AI "Her Power"
In 1908, 15,000 women in New York City chanted "Bread and Roses" to fight for shorter working hours, higher wages, and women's suffrage. This massive march was an awakening of women's collective consciousness and also sowed the seeds of International Women's Day. More than a century later,Contemporary women have long broken through traditional gender barriers and are shining brightly in various fields such as science and technology, economy, and culture.
Coinciding with the 115th International Women's Day, HyperAI will hold an online live event in the "Meet AI4S" series of academic sharing columns with the theme of "Her Power in the AI Era: Transformation under Hard-core Technology".We are honored to invite Professor Huang Hong from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Young Researcher Zhou Dongzhan from AI for Science Center of Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, and Assistant Researcher Zhou Bingxin from the Institute of Natural Sciences of Shanghai Jiao Tong University.Chat with everyone about their scientific research journey, share their growth insights and technical training experience along the way. See you at 12:00 on March 7~
In this live broadcast full of practical information, three researchers will have in-depth discussions on the following topics:
* The original intention and choice of the scientific research path: What made them resolutely devote themselves to scientific research?
* Critical decisions in academic career: How to grasp research directions with potential and overcome obstacles on the road of scientific research?
* Technological breakthroughs and innovations: What remarkable achievements have they made in their respective fields?
* Breakthroughs in adversity: When scientific research encounters setbacks, how can we adjust our mindset and find breakthroughs?
* Experience sharing from experienced people: Who is the person who has had the greatest influence on you, and what advice do you have for the younger generation?
* Talent cultivation and team building: What qualities do you focus on when recruiting students?
I hope their stories can inspire more young scholars to pursue a career in science.
