This workshop is being organized in recognition of the IKZ international fellowship award granted to Prof. Dr. Sergei Kalinin, a leading expert in AI for Microscopy. The event will bring together researchers working at the intersection of AI and TEM, with a special focus on in situ TEM, to discuss recent advancements, challenges, and future directions in the field.
The workshop will be held in English. Participation in the workshop is free of charge. Registration is needed.
Time duration: May 5, 2025, 1 pm to May 7, 2025, 2 pm
Attendees are encouraged to submit scientific posters. TFS and DENS will be awarding a Poster Prize for outstanding contributions!
You also have the opportunity to take part in an IKZ Lab tour and Berlin-Adlershof Center for Advanced Microscopy (https://csmb.hu-berlin.de/beam/).

About the Laureate
Sergei Kalinin is a Weston Fulton Chair Professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and has served as a principal scientist at Amazon Grand Challenge. He spent 20 years at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, where he was a corporate fellow and group leader at the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences. He received his MS degree from Moscow State University in 1998 and a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 2002. His research focuses on the applications of machine learning and artificial intelligence to materials synthesis, discovery, and optimization, as well as automated experiment and imaging workflows in advanced microscopy.
About the IKZ International Fellowship Award
The IKZ International Fellowship aims to bring a renowned scientist to the institute for scientific exchange and to shape a new R & D direction at IKZ. The Fellowship amounts to 10.000 € and will be awarded within the framework of this workshop.
