Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming the way science is conducted, accelerating discovery across disciplines and enabling researchers to address challenges that were unimaginable only a few years ago. From exploring the Universe and analysing particle collisions to predicting earthquakes, discovering new materials, modelling climate systems and decoding biological processes, AI has become an essential tool for scientific research.

The Balkan Summer School on Artificial Intelligence for Science brings together talented secondary school students from across the Balkan region to explore how AI is reshaping the frontiers of scientific knowledge. Through inspiring lectures by leading scientists, hands-on workshops, computational activities and collaborative projects, participants will discover how machine learning, data science and intelligent algorithms are applied in astronomy, particle physics, Earth observation, space exploration, environmental science, robotics and computer science.

Beyond developing technical skills, the Summer School aims to cultivate scientific curiosity, critical thinking, interdisciplinary collaboration and responsible innovation. Participants will experience how AI complements human creativity, helping scientists formulate new questions, analyse complex data and make evidence-based discoveries.

By connecting outstanding young minds with internationally recognised researchers, the Summer School seeks to inspire the next generation of scientists and innovators who will shape the future of science in the AI era.
