DESCRIPTION:\nWe are delighted to invite you to the Second International W
 orkshop on AI + Astronomy: Models\, Data\, Discovery\, a two-day event ded
 icated to exploring how artificial intelligence is reshaping astronomy. Af
 ter a successful workshop that took place last year in Hangzhou\, China\, 
 the second edition will take place this year at EPFL in Lausanne\, Switzer
 land. \nThe workshop will highlight the transformative role of large-scal
 e AI models in enabling data-intensive scientific discovery.\nThe program 
 will feature plenary and parallel sessions covering:\n·       Advan
 ces in AI and large models for astronomy\n·       Applications to s
 pectral surveys\, imaging\, and time-domain data\n·       Computing
 \, simulations\, and data-intensive astronomy\n·       Instrumentat
 ion and frontier technologies\n·       International collaboration 
 and open science\nThe main workshop will be held from 31 March-1 April 20
 26 at the Bernoulli Center at EPFL in Lausanne\, Switzerland. Hosted by EP
 FL Laboratory of Astrophysics in collaboration with the Zhejiang Lab. Lead
 ing scholars  will gather to exchange ideas and explore the latest progre
 ss and future directions at the intersection of AI and astronomy.\nThere w
 ill be a pre-workshop session at ETHZ Honggerbeg campus in Zurich on Monda
 y March 30. The participants will visit and have a presentation of the ETH
 Z AI center\, and of the CSCS computing platform. This session is mostly d
 edicated for our international guest.\nOn April 2nd\, 2026\, a visit of th
 e Jungfraujoch High Altitude Research Station near Grindelwald\, Switzerla
 nd will be organised for our international guests.\n\nhttps://indico.epfl.
