SUMMARY:AI-Powered Solutions for Scientific Discoveries
DESCRIPTION:As AI continues to evolve and shape industries across the globe
 \, RENCI (Renaissance Computing Institute) is leading the charge in deploy
 ing scalable\, real-world AI solutions to drive innovation in biomedical r
 esearch\, infrastructure safety\, and workflow management. Our researchers
  implement AI that makes a difference\, ensuring our partners can harness 
 the full power of intelligent systems for discovery and decision-making.\n
 \nRENCI experts will share insights into the organization's AI-driven init
 iatives through short presentations\, followed by a panel discussion and a
 udience Q&A.\n\nThe agenda for the event is as follows:\n- Deputy Director
  Becky Boyles will kick off with an overview of RENCI.\n- David Borland\, 
 Assistant Director of Analytics and Data Science\, will discuss the develo
 pment of an AI tool to extract roadside safety-related features from NCDOT
 ’s previously collected rural video log data\, including design and impl
 ementation of the road hazard annotation tool\, data management\, and AI a
 lgorithms.\n- Kathleen Carter\, Biomedical Data Scientist\, will introduce
  MATRIX\, a project that aims to revolutionize drug repurposing using AI t
 o identify new therapeutic uses for FDA-approved drugs. \n- Anirban Mandal
 \, Director of the Network Research and Infrastructure Group\, will delve 
 into PegasusAI\, a next-generation AI-driven scientific workflow managemen
 t system that introduces artificial intelligence to improve automation\, f
 ault detection\, performance prediction\, and user guidance across the com
 puting continuum—from edge devices to exascale high-performance computin
 g systems.\n\nZoom Link\nIn-Person Registration
