OpenTox Summer School 2023

Empowering Chemical Risk Assessment with Large Language Models

OpenToxAI Hackathon running 14-18 August, daily from 14-18 CEST (GoToWebinar & Slack)

Introduction: The theme of this year’s hackathon which is organized as a part of the OpenTox Summer School is “Challenges are the catalysts for innovation.” You are welcome to join us to prove your ability to drive innovation in chemical risk assessment through the best utilization of open-source resources of large language models (LLMS) including models, data sets, and tutorials. You will be provided with a list of resources to assist you and for all teams to have the same starting point. These resources include learning resources and computational resources. These resources and all the instructions will be attached in other documents in pdf format. Participants will have the chance to learn by working in teams having diverse backgrounds.
