SDSC and PSI teams jointly explore the AI potential of large-scale infrastructures
Villigen, July 8th, 2026 – To help activate a strategic community around its evolution as a national research infrastructure in data science and AI, the Swiss Data Science Center (SDCS) held a bespoke workshop at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI). The event brought together over 30 researchers and data scientists to explore how machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) can optimize and accelerate analysis on PSI's large-scale scientific infrastructures. The day featured substantive knowledge exchange and the development of flagship project concepts, aimed at ensuring that ML/AI can empower this vital Swiss facility to advance data-driven science and innovation for the benefit of society.
All'inseguimento degli atomi di idrogeno mancanti
Nelle rappresentazioni delle strutture cristalline dei materiali spesso mancano le informazioni relative alle posizioni degli atomi di idrogeno. I ricercatori dell'Istituto Paul Scherrer PSI hanno trovato un modo, impiegando l'intelligenza artificiale, per integrare la carenza di tali informazioni.
Congratulations to Đorđe Petrovic, PostDoc from ANS group
Đorđe Petrovic, PostDoc from ANS group of LSM was selected as recipient of the FR26 Young Generation Paper Recognition.
When Quantum Magnets Lose Their Sense of Scale
Scale invariance asks whether the same patterns can govern nature across very different lengths, from microscopic matter to large natural structures. Magnets offer one of the cleanest examples: near a critical point, where order disappears, details of the material fade and universal laws take over.
Congratulations to Israa for winning the Poster Competition award for her poster “Efficient QR based Column Subset Selection through Randomized Sparse Embedding”
Doctoral student Israa Fakih, supervised by Prof. Laura Grigori, won the 1st place in Poster Competition award for her poster “Efficient QR based Column Subset Selection through Randomized Sparse Embedding”, at the SWICCOMAS Annual Event 2026, held at the University of Bern, Switzerland.
Gli ossicini uditivi alla luce dei raggi X: una nuova tecnica rivela le strutture in tempi record
Utilizzando l'esempio di un osso, i ricercatori del PSI stanno dimostrando come sia possibile registrare le strutture dei materiali biologici dalla scala nanometrica a quella millimetrica nel più breve tempo possibile.
2nd GIF Molten Salt Reactor workshop at PSI
On 10 December 2025 the 2nd GIF Molten Salt Reactor workshop took place at PSI
MADICES Conference at PSI
The MADICES 3 workshop was about bringing representatives from the open research data (ORD) community, including research data management (RDM) platform developers/maintainers, ontology/semantics experts, those leveraging AI/LLM for RDM tasks, and FAIR principles advocators together to discuss (and implement solutions for) the problems hindering the adoption of ORD and FAIR principles and practices in the sciences.
HPCP Summer School FHNW/PSI
The institute for Data Science of the FHNW in Brugg - Windisch and AWI department of PSI held a joint course on high performance computing. The course addressed computer science students of FHNW and interested individuals at PSI. Two full days at the FHNW (with Apero) were followed by two full days at PSI using Merlin6 (with tour).
