What Will it Take to Succeed at Research? Taking Reproducibility to Action for Transformative AI-and Data-enabled Scientific Research
In this interactive workshop, Victoria Stodden invites the KIT community, especially early career researchers, to create ideas and proposals for facilitating research that is data-, compute-, or AI-enabled. The goal is to formulate a draft set of recommendations for accelerating research, focusing on shared and open workflows and reproducibility of results. We will workshop a "reproducible pipeline" with either real examples of the work you are currently doing, or prototype examples. We will identify reproducibility barriers you are facing and then 1) validate or repudiate the ideas from the plenary talk and 2) use this as a springboard to formulate a set of recommendations emerging from the workshop.
The workshops will build on ideas that will be introduced during the plenary talk by Victoria Stodden on January 20th, but the events will be stand-alone - if you can't attend the talk, you will still be able to participate in the workshop.
Register until January 14, 2025!
Participation is free of charge

We had a blast at the 2026 KCDS Summer School, with participants from all over the world and sessions covering both fundamental concepts and practical applications of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Combined with social activities, it was a great week! The summer school took place Sep 21-25, 2026 at KIT Campus South.

The CDS Runners team ran like the wind at the 12th KIT Meisterschaft, a 10km fun run at KIT Campus South and, thanks to the fastest four runners in the team, came in as team 13 of 59! Congratulations!

The workshop was co-organized by doctoral researchers from HGS MathComp (Heidelberg) and KCDS and provided a smooth introduction to a challenging, yet highly relevant topic: Stochastic partial differential equations in applied mathematics. It took place from March 9-11, 2026 in Heidelberg.
