Dr. Viral B. Shah is one of the creators of the Julia programming language and co-founder and CEO of JuliaHub. Read his article in Design News that explains how AI agents can handle physics-based modeling complexity while engineers focus on design judgment and tradeoffs.

We just released the talk schedule for JuMP-dev 2026, and it's a big one! We have over thirty talks across two packed days. This year our invited speaker is Fabian Hofmann, who will be speaking about the design of Linopy (https://lnkd.in/e6xfJVrP), a Python-based modelling language that powers the PyPSA energy modelling ecosystem. More details, including a link to buy tickets, at https://lnkd.in/gwbUUsSg

Milan Klöwer, Brian Groenke, Lazaro Alonso, and Jan Swierczek-Jereczek are hosting a minisymposium on "Earth system science in Julia" at JuliaCon 2026! Learn more at https://lnkd.in/dJTb4kwX and submit your proposal until February 28th at https://lnkd.in/d4xMKJK5 #julialang

Hi there! My talk at #JuliaCon2024 in Eindhoven sparked some great conversations — particularly about the two-language problem and, more broadly, about the challenges of developing software for pharmaceutical research applications. I'm grateful that our proceedings paper “Structure-based bioinformatics with Biochemical-Algorithms.jl” is out now! Huge thanks to my co-authors Thomas Kemmer and Andreas Hildebrandt — and I’m even more excited to build on this work. About the paper: We developed BiochemicalAlgorithms.jl, a redesign of the well-known BALL software (https://ball-project.org/), in the Julia programming language. The library provides a framework for atomistic modeling of proteins, including capabilities for reading various file formats, preprocessing, and molecular mechanics — all of which play key roles in the early drug-discovery pipeline. Paper link: https://lnkd.in/evssxGb3 Github repo: https://lnkd.in/eugDaN_N That’s why I’m organizing a minisymposium on “Pharmaceutical Research in Julia” at #JuliaCon2026 — to connect software developers and computational chemists. Stay tuned for speaker announcements and more details! #JuliaCon2026 #Bioinformatics #JuliaLanguage #DrugDiscovery

I am delighted to chair a new workshop of the Julia Special Interest Group (#JuliaSIG), in which we will have the pleasure of welcoming Dr Efstratios Palias as our guest speaker. Efstratios received his PhD from the School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham, working on the mathematical foundations of machine learning. He was then hired as a postdoc teaching fellow until the end of 2026, also doing research in Quantum Machine Learning in collaboration with his colleagues. His current research interests lie at the intersection of probability, information theory, and their applications to data science and machine learning. 🗣️ Seminar Title: Using AI Tools in Research: Personal Reflections and Round-table Discussion 🎓 Speaker: Dr Efstratios Palias 📍 Venue: Room AWPG-112, The Alan Walters Building, University of Birmingham (UK) 📅 Date and Time: 26 February 2026, 14:00-16:00 🔗 Registration: https://lnkd.in/eKV2KMva Abstract: AI tools are enjoying widespread usage in everyday tasks, including in academic research. However, these tools are mostly unregulated, and there are still no concrete guidelines on how to use them properly. Combined with extreme monetisation strategies, this leads to extensive use for the sole purpose of fuelling the attention economy, causing the so-called 'AI-slop'. As a result, human creativity and factual accuracy have taken a hit in recent times and may need to be reclaimed. In this talk, I aim to share my experience on using AI tools in my field of research, Quantum Machine Learning. I will break down the research process into stages and address each one separately with some examples. I will also give some tips that, in my experience, have proven to increase their efficiency, while keeping their drawbacks in check. After the talk, I would like to hold a round-table discussion to compare our experiences, so that everyone has the opportunity to benefit from each others's. Looking forward to an insightful discussion and to welcoming many of you to this session! The Julia Language JuliaHub JuliaCon 2026 #machinelearning #computerscience #datascience #BEAR
