NeurIPS@Cam 2025

NeurIPS@Cam 2025

Programme Overview

NeurIPS@Cam 2025 is part of the AI for Science Summit (9 to 10 December 2025) hosted by the Accelerate Programme for Scientific Discovery, a two day event celebrating advances in machine learning and their impact across scientific domains. On the second day of the Summit, NeurIPS@Cam brings together students, researchers, and engineers across the Cambridge community for a full day dedicated to discussing work presented at NeurIPS and related advances in AI research. The day is organised in partnership with the Cambridge Centre for Data Driven Discovery (C2D3), and the first half of the programme is delivered jointly with C2D3.

The joint C2D3/NeurIPS@Cam morning session will include talks on new ways to solve problems along with a keynote. The afternoon programme (see C2D3 events page for parallel session run by C2D3) consists of two presentation sessions followed by a panel discussion. All speakers present their ongoing research, and the event provides a space to share ongoing research, exchange ideas, and strengthen connections across the local AI community.

Registration

We have closed registration as the event has reached full capacity. If you would like to be placed on the waiting list please get in touch with Annabelle Scott (as599@cam.ac.uk).
