DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Klaus-Robert Müller\nhosted by ÖAW\nAbstract: Abstra
 ctIn recent years\, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI)
  methods have begun to play a more and more enabling role in the sciences 
 and in industry. In particular\, the advent of large and/or complex data c
 orpora has given rise to new technological challenges and possibilities. I
 n his talk\, Müller will touch upon the topic of ML applications in the s
 ciences\, in particular in medicine and if time permits also in chemistry.
  He will also discuss possibilities for extracting information from machin
 e learning models to further our understanding by explaining nonlinear ML 
 models. Finally\, Müller will briefly discuss perspectives and limitation
 s.BioKlaus-Robert Müller is Professor for Machine Learning at TU Berlin a
 nd at Korea University\, Seoul. He is director of BIFOLD – one of 5 perm
 anently funded German national AI centers. He is a member of Leopoldina\
 , BBAW and Acatech and an external scientific member of the Max-Planck S
 ociety. Among others he received the Berlin Science prize\, the Vodafone I
 nnovation Award\, the Hector Science award\, the Feynman award\, the IEEE 
 CIS Neural Network Pioneer Award and the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz prize. 
 Consecutively from 2019 on he became ISI Highly Cited Researcher. His rese
 arch interests are in AI for the sciences and in the foundations of AI.Pho

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: John Martinis\nhosted by Johannes Fink\nAbstract: The 
 Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the Nobel Prize in 
 Physics 2025 to John Clarke\, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for t
 he discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quant
 isation in an electric circuit.John Martinis' presentation traces the evol
 ution of superconducting quantum computing from its foundational physics e
 xperiments in the 1980s to the 2019 demonstration of quantum supremacy wit
 h Googles Sycamore processor. Scaling current noisy quantum systems into f
 ault-tolerant commercial computers requires transitioning from bespoke aca
 demic fabrication to standardized 300mm semiconductor manufacturing lines 
 and horizontal industry partnerships.

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Thorsten Hüffer\nhosted by Sustainability Office\nAbs
 tract: Tire wear is a widespread source of rubber particles and associated
  chemicals in the environment. As particles move from roads into soils and
  waterways\, tire additives can leach and transform\, creating exposure pa
 thways that extend beyond the particles themselves. This lecture will foll
 ow these chemicals from their release during tire wear to their fate in th
 e environment\, focusing on how soil properties\, chemical behavior\, and 
 plant uptake shape potential exposure through food.Drawing on laboratory s
 tudies\, soil-based experiments\, and measurements in commercial leafy veg
 etables\, I will discuss the uptake and transformation of rubber-associate
 d chemicals. The findings show that exposure depends on the compound and r
 oute of entry: some chemicals can be taken up by edible plants\, while tir
 e-wear particles may act as a continuing source of certain additives in so
 il. Detections in vegetables indicate a potential dietary pathway\, but do
  not by themselves establish health effects.The lecture will also consider
  what this evidence means for assessing the environmental footprint of rub
 ber products. Evaluating alternatives requires looking beyond particle emi
 ssions to include additive composition\, chemical release during use and w
 eathering\, and the movement of released compounds through soil\, water\, 
 and food systems.
