28-30 April 2027 · Kostelec Castle, near Prague
A three-day meetup for researchers who use AI.
For early-career researchers and PhD students in any field who use AI in their research: historians, sports scientists, biologists, linguists and more. You tell us what your project needs, and we invite the experts and collaborators to match.
Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń is a partner of V4AIR, the V4 AI Researchers Meetup, organised by Charles University and prg.ai. We are writing to invite you to three days with early-career researchers from the four Visegrad countries at Kostelec Castle, about 30 minutes from Prague, on 28–30 April 2027.
If you use AI in your research, or build the AI tools others use, V4AIR is for you, whatever your field. You will meet biologists, medical researchers, linguists, psychologists and engineers who work with methods like NLP, computer vision, machine learning, agentic AI and statistical modelling.
Need an AI tool nobody in your department can build?Bring your problem and your data. Meet the computer vision, NLP or machine learning researcher who can solve it, and write your next paper together.
Built an algorithm but have no real data to test it on?At V4AIR you will meet the domain experts with the problems that need your solution.
Who is missing from your team?Tell us in your application, and we will find the people who match and invite them. Our goal is that you leave with at least one relevant collaborator. You can also consult experts and meet people from industry.
You do not need a paper.Bring what you are working on now. Works in progress and projects that got stuck are welcome. You can also share your experience in a talk or a hands-on workshop.
Funded places for NCUParticipants from Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń pay no participation fee. Thanks to the support of the International Visegrad Fund, accommodation at the castle, meals, and a contribution toward travel are also covered for limited participants.
Apply by 15 January to spend three days at Kostelec Castle.
