We are delighted to announce the inaugural UQ AI Conference Dry Run Seminar Series, proudly hosted by the UQ Data Science Discipline (School of EECS).
This event is part of our ongoing effort to support HDR students and early-career researchers in preparing for upcoming international AI conferences, while fostering a vibrant, cross-disciplinary research community within UQ.
The seminar provides a unique platform for presenters to rehearse their accepted conference papers, receive constructive feedback from the audience, and gain valuable presentation experience in a collegial environment.
All attendees — from HDR students to academics across disciplines — are warmly encouraged to join, engage, and exchange ideas about your research interests, methodologies, and visions for the future of AI.
