Data Science and AI TIG

Hi Everyone! We're one week away from SLAS 2026 in Boston. If you haven't registered yet, you can still register here. If you have registered, make sure you add the Data Science and AI TIG meeting to your schedule! You can view the meeting description on the Event Scheduler here.

In this meeting, we will discuss and draft AI usage guidelines for SLAS abstracts, posters, reviews, and other submissions. SLAS publications are currently governed by Elsevier's guidelines, which can be found here:
