The theme of the symposium will be "Data Science for Cross-Disciplinary Research", which will bring together ~150 computational scientists in the fields of physics, biology and engineering in a discussion of how computational methods can be used in these multidisciplinary fields, and bring opportunities for new collaborations.

Sofia Vallecorsa, an expert in Machine Learning and Quantum Computing at CERN openlab, will be the opening keynote speaker.

The CDCS is a new interdisciplinary joint facility of the Universität Hamburg, Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), and the Hamburg University of Technology, that aims to combine scientific research with state-of-the-art information technology.
