WEEK 46 · 9–15 NOVEMBER

Claude for Science and a packed Thursday

Thursday is the busy one: five of this week's seven events fall on 12 Nov. If you keep only one evening free, make it Claude for Science. Four researchers show how they used Claude, including what didn't work. Seats are limited to about 50 and need approval, so apply early.

In the news, read the Seattle story on Corti and EIFO's stake in TEKEVER as it opens a base in Odense.
