▪ Join us for Boosting Research with LLMs, a dynamic half-day workshop exploring how large language models (LLMs) can accelerate scientific discovery across disciplines. Registration will close March 24.
▪ Through three expert-led panels, we will uncover practical applications of LLMs for engineers, natural scientists, computer scientists, and social scientists-transforming the way we analyze data, generate insights, and advance research. Designed for beginners, this workshop requires no prior experience with LLMs, making it the perfect opportunity to explore cutting-edge Al tools that can enhance your research capabilities.
▪ This event is open to Georgia Tech faculty, graduate students, researchers and staff. Speaker names are linked to bios in the agenda below.
