Talks and workshops at 'Pie & AI:Aarhus' cover a wide range of topics in data science and their impact on clinical research. Our aim is to bring the data science and clinical research communities together, therefore we organize the programme in a way that both communities can get inspired and learn something new at our events.

How often
Monday afternoon (once a month). See upcoming events here.
