Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used in research in Dundee and around the world. In Dundee, computers have helped us understand how cells in our body work, and how this can be applied in medicine.<\/p>\n<p>But the stories we hear about AI are not always positive, with the use and misuse of personal data, for example the Cambridge Analytica scandal, generating lots of headlines. So what\u2019s the real story?<\/p>\n<p>This discussion with Prof Geoff Barton (University of Dundee) will showcase his research in biology and health, whilst considering the social challenges in how we use AI.<\/p>\n<p>Join us at Caf\u00e9 Science Dundee at Medina Bar and Grill, 113 Nethergate, Dundee on Monday 16 March, at 7pm.

However, creative education is also seen as a crucial step in developing skills in young children. This is especially relevant in the city of Dundee, where skilled creative people are needed to support our growing creative industries.<\/p>\n<p>So how do we make sure arts education is delivered in a way that benefits children\u2019s development?<br \/>\nJoin us at Dundee Arts Caf\u00e9 as Dr Anna Robb from the University of Dundee, explores including the voices of primary school children, when developing school lessons and careers advice for the future. This presentation will draw on research focused on young children\u2019s experiences of visual art in the home and at school, as well as in the local community and across the city. Anna will give examples of how our relationships with school subjects, such as art, inform our identities from an early age.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone is welcome.
