ELLIS against Covid-19
The world is facing a public health emergency caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. We all need to take this on, and science can make a major contribution. This online workshop will present projects on how to tackle Covid-19 using methods of machine learning and AI, carried out by leading international researchers.
Research topics include outbreak prediction, epidemiological modelling, drug development, viral and host genome sequencing, and health care management.
