A Successful Year for MaLGa’s PhD Schools!

We are proud to celebrate the success of the three PhD schools organized by MaLGa during spring and summer 2025:

• DVSS – Data Visualization Summer School
• TFML – Theoretical Foundations of Machine Learning
• JDL – A Journey through Deep Learning

These programs brought together nearly 300 participants from across Europe and beyond, including PhD students, postdocs, and early-career researchers. Each school offered a rich blend of lectures, hands-on sessions, and interactive discussions, designed to deepen technical skills, encourage critical thinking, and foster interdisciplinary collaboration.

Led by internationally renowned speakers from academia and industry, the schools covered a wide range of topics — from theoretical underpinnings to practical tools, from mathematical models to cutting-edge applications.

What truly stood out this year was the diverse and inclusive atmosphere: researchers from different disciplines and backgrounds worked side by side, building not only new knowledge but also valuable networks for future collaborations.

We're deeply grateful to all the instructors, staff, and participants who contributed to this year’s success — and to the institutions and sponsors who supported the initiative.

Looking ahead, planning for the 2025/26 PhD school calendar is already underway. Stay tuned for updates and calls for applications in the coming months!
