bAIome Center for biomedical AI (UKE) and Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine (BNITM) will host the seminar series entitled “AI in biology and Medicine”. This series aims to capture a broad audience and promote cross institutional collaboration. Our expert speakers will give an overview and insight into particular AI/data science methods being developed in key areas of biology and medicine. We will have drinks and snacks following each seminar to facilitate exchange.

Future robots need to be robust and adaptable, and new design approaches are needed for new production methods. I will talk about my research in using evolutionary algorithms and biologically inspired methods with the aim of having more intelligent, robust, and adaptive behavior in robots. I will give a short introduction to some of the algorithms and show how we, at the University of Oslo, apply them in our research platforms for exploring automatic robot design and adaptation. Here, we take an embodied AI approach and aim to co-design the body and the behavior of the robots, such that they are well fit for their intended environments and tasks. These approaches are still at a fundamental research stage, and I will discuss potential future application areas, as well as challenges and opportunities related to the sustainability of these AI systems.

Learning objectives:

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

• List some bio-inspired AI approaches for robot design and adaptation.
• Discuss challenges and opportunities related to algorithmic robot design.

Recommended mastery level:

• Some undergraduate level engineering or computer science skills would be beneficial, although not absolutely necessary.

Marina Zimmermann, professor of computational pathology (UKE) will speak about the gap between research and clinics and the factors that contribute to this, such as the focus on reproducing subjective scores and the large variance in performance depending on the data source. She will look into overcoming subjective scores by introducing objective endpoints, as well as developing quantifiable and objective metrics based on specialised microscopy types. In order to further close the gap, she will address domain shifts between datasets and generalizability, as well as measures of uncertainty to defer uncertain decisions.

Coding Life meint das Prinzip, dass Zellen wie winzige Hightech-Computer funktionieren. Sie lesen den genetischen Code, den Forschende umschreiben, ergänzen oder völlig neu erfinden. Die Fortschritte im Bereich der synthetischen Biologie sind rasant – maßgeblich vorangetrieben durch Künstliche Intelligenz. Moderne KI-Modelle können heute komplexe Proteinstrukturen innerhalb von Sekunden berechnen und sogar neue, maßgeschneiderte Proteine entwerfen. Bereits in naher Zukunft könnten sogenannte KI-Agenten den nächsten großen Effizienzsprung ermöglichen: Sie planen Experimente zunehmend eigenständig, werten Daten aus und optimieren biologische Designs – ein menschliches Eingreifen wird dabei immer seltener notwendig.
Die absehbare Automatisierung wirft Fragen auf, denen die Podiumsdiskussion nachgeht. Sie lauten etwa:

• Was dürfen wir verändern? 
• Wie viel Kontrolle sollten wir autonomen KI-Systemen künftig überlassen? 
• Wem gehört das maschinell generierte Wissen? 
• Denken wir noch selbst oder prompten wir nur noch?
