ICB Seminare
Grusswort des Vorsitzenden
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
die Seminarreihe wurde gegründet, um die vielfältigen Forschungsaktivitäten des ICB, einschließlich der Katalyse, Funktionswerkstoffe, Kunststofftechnik, Trennungen, Mikrofluidik, Prozessdesign und Systemtechnik abzudecken. Diese Reihe dient der Ergänzung der bestehenden Seminarprogramme von anderen Instituten im D-CHAB. Jedes Jahr werden rund sieben bedeutende Wissenschaftler und Technologen aufgefordert, zu aktuellen Themen in der Chemie und Bioverfahrenstechnik zu sprechen. Alle sind herzlich eingeladen.
Nutzen Sie die Gelegenheit unsere Top-Referenten zu hören. Willkommen an der ICB-Vortragsreihe!

Symposium on
Artificial Intelligence in Chemical and Bioengineering
5 - 6 February 2020
The aim of this symposium is to provide an introduction to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in chemical and process engineering. In the same way it is revolutionizing several areas of science and technology, artificial intelligence has huge potential to impact also core activities of chemical engineers such as modeling, material design, reaction engineering, process control and intensification. This series of seminars, delivered by world-class leaders in the field, will provide a comprehensive overview of this very exciting and rapidly evolving area, from a historical perspective to the most recent developments, from fundamental scientific questions to examples of concrete applications. The seminars will also provide a critical overview on challenges and opportunities in building hybrid mechanistic/data driven models.
