You are cordially invited to attend the biweekly Brookhaven AI Mixer (BAM). BAM includes one short talk on AI research happening at BNL, followed by an open mixer. The first half hour will consist of presentations that will be available via ZOOM, and the second half hour will be for in person only networking.

We meet every other Tuesday at noon in CDSD's Training Room (building 725, room 2-124) to learn about interesting AI methods and applications, engage with potential collaborators, prepare for pending FASST funding calls, and build a community of AI for Science at BNL.

In addition to our speaker, we will have a number of CDS staff in attendance with expertise in AI methods and applications including image analysis, foundation models development, and inverse problem solving.

Location: CDS, Bldg. 725, Training Room

Keynote Speaker: José Antonio Bowen

José Antonio Bowen has been leading innovation and change for over 40 years at Stanford, Georgetown and the University of Southampton (UK), as a dean at Miami University and SMU and as President of Goucher College. Bowen has worked as a musician with Stan Getz, Dave Brubeck, and many others and his symphony was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Music (1985).
Bowen holds four degrees from Stanford and has written over 100 scholarly articles and books, including the Cambridge Companion to Conducting (2003), Teaching Naked (2012 and the winner of the Ness Award for Best Book on Higher Education), Teaching Naked Techniques with C. Edward Watson (2017) and Teaching Change: How to Develop Independent Thinkers using Relationships, Resilience and Reflection (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2021).
Bowen has appeared in The New York Times, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, and has three TED talks. Stanford honored him as a Distinguished Alumni Scholar (2010) and he has presented keynotes and workshops at more than 300 campuses and conferences 46 states and 17 countries around the world. In 2018, he was awarded the Ernest L. Boyer Award (for significant contributions to American higher education). He is a senior fellow for the American Association of Colleges and Universities.

Abstract: Formalization of mathematics is the process by which pen-and-paper mathematics is translated into a strict chain of logical deductions down to the axioms of mathematics. The subject has seen renewed interest in the last decades thanks to the development of computer systems called proof assistants, which make this feasible in practice.
There have now been several examples of high-profile mathematical results which have been formalized. In principle, any mathematical domain is accessible. However, existing projects are skewed towards algebra instead of analysis. Notable exceptions are a project which formalized enough of Gromov's convex integration theory to deduce Smale's sphere eversion theorem and the ongoing project to formalize Carleson's convergence theorem for Fourier series.
This workshop will bring together formalization experts and interested mathematicians to give a new impulse to formalization of analysis (in a very broad sense), and to develop abstractions and tools to deduplicate effort.

Application Information: ICERM welcomes applications from faculty, postdocs, graduate students, industry scientists, and other researchers who wish to participate. Some funding may be available for travel and lodging. Graduate students who apply must have their advisor submit a statement of support in order to be considered.

The deadline to apply for this workshop is January 24, 2026.

This two-day event will provide a significant opportunity to explore the future of AI, exchange ideas, and connect with those at the forefront of research and deployment. We invite faculty, staff, and students from all SUNY institutions and beyond, as well as industry AI practitioners and policymakers to attend.

Recognized AI experts from academia, industry, and government will present on topics such as AI applications, innovative developments in research and technology, workforce development, as well as ethical and societal impacts.

A 90-minute poster session is included in the schedule. If you would like to submit an abstract for consideration, please see the Call for Abstracts. The poster session segment of the symposium will be held in honor of the Inauguration of Dr. Andrea Goldsmith, the State University of New York at Stony Brook's seventh President. Poster printing for all participants will be covered by the Inauguration Planning Committee. SUNY students presenting posters are also eligible for travel reimbursement.

We kindly ask faculty to encourage their students to attend and to submit their work for presentation.
