    Modular Curriculum

    From Foundations to Frontier Methods

    Our curriculum is fully modular and can be delivered as anything from a single-day workshop to a multi-year course. We tailor the scope, depth, and focus to your team's needs and domain.

    Participants will learn to:

    Select and prepare scientific datasets for AI
    Train, evaluate, and interpret neural networks
    Apply modern methods — transformers, U-Nets, self-supervised learning
    Advance to frontier — GNNs, diffusion models, deep RL
    Build and iterate on your own models in mentored workshops
    Emphasis on reproducibility and responsible AI

    Foundations

    Core AI for Scientific Data

    Dense Neural Networks

    Capturing trends and recognizing patterns: regression, classification, regularization

    Convolutional Neural Networks

    Processing images: augmentations, transfer learning, ROI evaluation

    Recurrent Neural Networks

    Processing time series: sequence labeling, forecasting, GRU/LSTM

    Attention & Transformers

    Processing language & images: ViT, BERT, tokenization, fine-tuning

    Autoencoders & Active Learning

    Enhancing data, denoising, latent embeddings, continuous improvement

    Advanced

    Advanced Methods & Workshops

    Self-Supervised Learning

    Contrastive & masked approaches for microscopy and omics

    U-Nets for Segmentation

    2D/3D segmentation, loss functions, class imbalance, post-processing

    Representation Learning

    Autoencoders + self-supervised pipelines for limited labels

    In longer programs, participants pivot to mentored workshops on their own data and projects.

    Frontier

    Complex & Frontier Methods

    Graph Neural Networks

    Molecular modeling, reaction & property prediction, structural biology

    GANs & Diffusion Models

    Data synthesis, denoising, in-painting, generative evaluation

    Deep Reinforcement Learning

    Experiment design, sequential decision-making policies

    Reservoir Computing

    Nonlinear dynamics in physiology & lab systems

    How It Works

    Every program is tailored to your team. Here's what stays constant.

    Flexible Format

    From a single-day workshop to a multi-week course or multi-year program, we adapt to your schedule and goals.

    Small Cohorts

    Typically 20–28 participants with ~1 mentor per 6, ensuring personal guidance and hands-on support.

    Bring Your Own Data

    In extended programs, participants work on their own datasets and walk away with a working pipeline.
