NINeS 2026: Pods: HKUST

The HKUST NINeS pod will offer an informal environment to watch, share, and discuss the NINeS programme. It will consist of a mix of in-person talks by senior and junior people, shared viewing of the NINeS programme, and lively discussions throughout.

The day will start with an introduction to the NINeS programme, and a vote to decide which presentations are viewed. It will conclude with a wrap-up discussion, and a drinks social event on the HKUST campus. The pod will be organised by Zili Meng and Gareth Tyson.
