Webinar “Python for Non-Programmers”
This webinar, specially designed for non-programmers, aims to introduce participants to the fundamental concepts of Python in an accessible and practical way.
Although primarily aimed at students from any study cycle, participation is open to everyone. The presentation will be in Portuguese.
Alumni ULisboa Meeting 2025 – “Generative Artificial Intelligence: I use, therefore I am?”
The event invites the community to an inspiring conversation on technology, ethics, and the future, featuring voices that reflect and transform realities. The meeting will feature Manuel Dias and Madalena Talone, alumni of Instituto Superior Técnico.
Técnico Conference 2025
The School Assembly of Instituto Superior Técnico will organize the Técnico Conference 2025 – “The Future at Técnico”.
At a time when our School is undergoing major transformations and well-being is essential to face the challenges brought by the development and application of Artificial Intelligence in education and academic life, it becomes crucial to rethink the future of Técnico as a united and collaborative community.
Career Training Workshop “Effective Communication Skills for Recruitment” by Kearney
In this workshop, Kearney shares strategies and practical techniques to improve your ability to communicate clearly and confidently. Participants will practice how to structure messages for applications and interviews, enhance presence and communication, and respond to questions with confidence through short exercises with immediate feedback.
"Smart Cities and Smart Homes: How Artificial Intelligence Transforms Shared Spaces" | Series “Artificial Intelligence Interacting in the Physical World”
- AI-based traffic management with adaptive traffic lights and responsive public transport;
- Smart waste collection and real-time optimization of energy and water usage in public spaces;
- Intelligent urban systems that automatically detect anomalies and promote citizen participation;
- Smart buildings using AI to manage lighting, temperature, and security, enhancing comfort, sustainability, and autonomy.
“Smart Networks for a Sustainable Future: Energy, Water, Environment and Agriculture” | Series “Artificial Intelligence Interacting in the Physical World”
This panel explores how smart networks and artificial intelligence integrate different energy sources, adjust supply to real consumption, and promote efficiency in public lighting and buildings.
It will also cover smart water networks that detect losses and improve water management, as well as environmental monitoring systems that track air quality, noise, and carbon emissions—providing essential data to protect public health and the planet.
Tech Families | Build a Weather Station
Part of the project “Engineering for Everyone”, this initiative invites parents, children, and families to explore technology together in a fun and interactive way.
In this activity, families will get hands-on and build their own weather station. Using an Arduino and sensors for temperature, humidity, and pressure, they will measure real-time atmospheric conditions and display the data on a small digital screen.
"Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare: Diagnosis, Treatment and Personalized Care" | Series “Artificial Intelligence Interacting in the Physical World”
- Automatic diagnosis through medical image analysis (X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, mammograms);
- Early disease detection and diagnosis of rare conditions using AI analysis of large hospital and social data sets;
- Precision medicine combining genetic and medical history data for personalized treatments;
- Home monitoring with wearable devices for continuous and personalized care;
- Accelerated drug discovery through molecular interaction simulation;
- Robotic surgery for safer and more precise procedures;
- Optimized hospital management improving scheduling, logistics, and resource allocation.
"Ethics and Social Responsibility of AI" | Series “Artificial Intelligence Interacting in the Physical World”
- Legal responsibility in cases of accidents involving autonomous systems;
- Privacy issues related to data collection by sensors in public and private spaces;
- Socioeconomic impacts of automation across different sectors;
- Ensuring fairness in access to and benefits from physical AI technologies;
- Transparency and explainability of decision-making systems that affect the physical world;
- Definition of ethical standards and the need for suitable national and international regulatory frameworks.
