This implies that any theoretical study on DNA should take into consideration the vast variety of space and time scales, making it necessary the adoption of multi-physics approaches, covering the entire range of theoretical methods from quantum chemistry to rough mesoscopic models. Within this scenario the importance of data to bias simulations and as a reference to calibrate low resolution methods (Dans et al. 2017; Neguembor et al. 2022; Schultz et al. 2025).<br>\r\nLarge efforts have been made to develop accurate low level DFT and semiempirical methods that can be data-providers for a new generation of force-field, as well as integrated in QM/MM packages for an efficient representation of DNA reactivity (Aranda et al. 2019). Atomistic force-field have gained accuracy, showing good ability to reproduce unusual forms of DNA and long segments of DNA in the context of chromatin (Collepardo-Guevara et al. 2015; Genna et al. 2025) and providing very useful data for the calibration of lower level coarse-grained or mesoscopic methods(De Pablo 2011; Farré-Gil et al. 2024) ,which have gained sequence specificity, scalability and computational efficiency, allowing to simulate kilo-to-megabase fragments of DNA. Very remarkable efforts have been made to move up these methods to represent chromatin, which requires the introduction of biases derived from experimental data (MNAseq, chromosome conformation capture, and even static or dynamic pictures obtained by ultra-resolution microscopy, and others (Buitrago et al. 2019; Neguembor et al. 2022; Li and Schlick 2024)). This has opened the possibility to recover dynamic “base-pair” resolution pictures of chromatin and study aspects from local and global chromatin rearrangements to inter-play between effector proteins and nucleosomes, the impact of lesions in chromatin structure, and even the role of phase separation in defining local chromatin arrangements (Joseph et al. 2021; Liu et al. 2025; Park et al. 2025).<br>\r\nAs the target systems move from the small atomistic detail to the entire chromatin fiber, the community is broken into different sub-communities. This generates a risk of disconnection, which would lead to a waste of effort reformulating solutions to already solved problems, or ignoring the characteristic that a method should have to maintain coherence with more accurate models, or to scale to represent systems of real biological interest. This will be the main objective of this meeting, which will join a variety of sub-communities with a common interest: the DNA.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>References</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1038/s41929-019-0290-y\" target=\"_blank\">[1] J.

By examining several vignettes, we shall answer questions such as: how do we train language models under cost constraints? What happens when we’ve exhausted all available data? If I start a clinical trial using the drug AI thinks is best, will it pan out? How can we ensure high-quality products when AI is used in a larger workflow? That is, how do I know whether AI automated a task correctly? AI powered imputations are beginning to substitute for real data when collection of the latter is difficult, slow, or costly. How then should we leverage machine learning predictions both as a substitute for high-quality data and as a tool for guiding real data collection?<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://bernoulli.epfl.ch/georges-de-rham/\">Bernoulli Center for Fundamental Studies </a><br>\r\n </p>", "image_description": "Georges de Rham", "creation_date": "2026-04-09T11:23:48", "last_modification_date": "2026-04-21T10:30:46", "link_label": "REGISTER HERE", "link_url": "https://forms.cloud.microsoft/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=alXC9vvEsUqix54iDfEcQz1L8lg9k1hKjoS8MXHPYMFUN1MwRk5PUzA3MDhGNUgwS0tMRlRKSVZSSi4u", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "PO 01", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==PO%2001", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Prof Hong Wang, IHES & NYU<br>\r\nProf Emmanuel Candès, Stanford", "organizer": "Bernoulli Center", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Expert", "en_label": "Expert" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "Kakeya, AI, statistics", "file": "https://memento.epfl.ch/public/upload/files/DERHAMAffiche.jpg", "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120322/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/400/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/416/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71798, "title": "Lunch Talks \"AI and Ethical Scientific Practices\"", "slug": "lunch-talks-ai-and-ethical-scientific-practices", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/lunch-talks-ai-and-ethical-scientific-practices", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33121/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33121/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33121/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-26", "end_date": "2026-05-26", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:45:00", "description": "<strong>Join the next Lunch Talks session, \"AI and Ethical Scientific Practices\", on May 26th, from 12:15 to 13:45, in <a href=\"https://plan.epfl.ch/?room=%3DBM%205202&dim_floor=5&lang=fr&dim_lang=fr&tree_groups=centres_nevralgiques_grp%2Cmobilite_acces_grp%2Crestauration_et_commerces_grp%2Censeignement%2Cservices_campus_grp%2Cequipements_grp&tree_group_layers_centres_nevralgiques_grp=&tree_group_layers_mobilite_acces_grp=metro&tree_group_layers_restauration_et_commerces_grp=&tree_group_layers_enseignement=guichet_etudiants&tree_group_layers_services_campus_grp=information_epfl&tree_group_layers_equipements_grp=&baselayer_ref=grp_backgrounds&map_x=2532974&map_y=1152504&map_zoom=15\">BM 5202</a>.</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nLanguage: English<br>\r\nDoors open from 12:05<br>\r\nFree lunch bag - water not included: bring your reusable bottle to reduce environmental impact<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>PROGRAM </strong><br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Talk 1: A Theoretical Lens on Responsible AI </strong>(10 min)</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nBy <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/orr.paradise\">Orr Paradise</a> – Postdoctoral fellow at EPFL and researcher at Project CETI<br>\r\n<br>\r\nToday's AI landscape can feel technologically inevitable: large models are used for everything, trained on everything, and trusted beyond what they can justify. In this talk, I will suggest that theoretical computer science offers a way to design and build alternatives. Drawing on work on Self-Proving Models and on research with the Cetacean Translation Initiative (Project CETI), I will describe how theory can help turn ideas such as verification and respect for the object of study into well-defined research questions.<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Talk 2:</strong> <strong>Before You Train That Model: Legal and Ethical Basics for AI Research at EPFL </strong>(15 min)</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nBy <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/gaia.barazzetti\">Gaia Barazzetti</a> – Senior Research Ethics Compliance Officer, EPFL Research Office and <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/valentin.conrad\">Valentin Conrad</a> – Senior Legal Counsel, EPFL Legal Affairs<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTaking scientific integrity as a starting point, this presentation provides an overview of the legal and ethical rules that apply to AI research at EPFL.

This presentation focuses on the practical work of ethics committees in reviewing research projects involving AI. It highlights how committees examine assumptions, risks, impacts, and responsibilities throughout the research process, including the use of AI as a tool and as an object of study. The talk aims to clarify the specific contribution of ethics review in supporting responsible and reflective AI enabled research.<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Talk 4: AI for research and research about AI: a responsible design approach </strong>(10 min)</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nBy <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/cecile.hardebolle\">Cécile Hardebolle</a> – Teaching Advisor (EPFL CEDE), Project Officer (EPFL LEARN) and Lecturer (EPFL SIN)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nAI is increasingly present in research, whether as a tool or as an object of research, which raises specific risks if ethical considerations are overlooked.
