Welcome to the 6th edition of Smartspaces!
👋 Greetings fellow curiosity junkies!
A few bites to start with - we grew a staggering 730% 📈 in the last four weeks and our average opening rate is at 71% 📭️ The response is decent but we also understand that email is not the best medium to read through 30+ events each week - We hear 👂️ you! Stay tuned, good things coming your way 💝
Curation is king and a big shout out to our lead curator Nikolas who became somewhat “the most knowledgable event-human on the internet” within the shortest time. At one point we will drop some best-of facts in here but until then follow him on LinkedIn to learn more about his “💡 SuperSmart Me 🧠 ” challenge in which he is gonna attend and review virtual science events each week.
This week’s forecast offers 🛩️ Aerospace Innovation Seminar by MIT, DL Workshop for virtual screening for 💊 DrugDiscovery by NeoVarsity, ⚡️ AI & Energy Technology Discovery by Columbia University and a full-day event by Stanford University HAI on GenAI 🤖 with speakers from Stanford, Berkeley, Google Deepmind, Microsoft et al. and a lecture at ETH Zurich with a professor who holds 41(!) honorary doctorates.
🧠 Let’s start with igniting the curiosity drive 🧠
What is the Hirsch Index?
A measurement to indicate the diversity of bio-stabile systems in continental Europe?
A ranking of Antler sizes, to measure age, health & estimated reproductive rate of Deers?
A measurement to evaluate the influence and productivity of scientists?
Well, one of these is true and the answer is hidden in our free handpicked event & lecture recommendations below!
As always, please share our newsletter, recommend to your friends and communities and do not hold back with critical and constructive feedback and ideas.
