To encourage cross pollination of ideas between researchers from different disciplines, IceLab hosts interdisciplinary research lunches with the vision of allowing ideas to meet and mate. During the Lunch Pitch Season, the creative lunches take place at KBC, every other week. 

Where: KBC Glasburen  

Pitch 1: Paolo Bientinesi, Professor, Department of Computing Science

Importance and limitation of software libraries in computational workflows

Interested in: computational applications for which execution time is a limiting factor. With suitable speeding up, are new scientific results within reach? We're interested in collaborations.

Pitches 2 & 3: Beatrice Melin with Minh Hoang Vu and Wilfred de Graaf. Beatrice Melin, Professor, Department of Diagnostics and Intervention; Minh Hoang Vu, Postdoctoral fellow, Department of Diagnositcs and Intervention, IceLab; Wilfred de Graaf, Heights.ai

From catching criminals to catching cancer - can anomali models be used in health data?

Interested in: Discussing models that work robustly to detect rare disease in health data. All input welcome! The research group has experience in analysing health data in traditional ways. What benefits can AI models bring?
