CANCELLED! Ada Lovelace Day 2022: Curiosity and passion for Technology
UPDATE: This event has been cancelled, but you can meet many of the speakers and hear about their research in 3D modeling at the Digital Tech Summit 2022 on 26 October 2022. Learn more digital-tech-summit@com
Do you want to spend a nice evening in company with some funky young (female) researchers and dedicated academics and professionals? Or are you simply curious about cutting edge research and development using 3D Modeling?
Whether you are a student, a professional working within the fields of R&D, a full time IT specialist, or just curious about the STEM agenda, you are most welcome. Participation is free of charge, but you need to sign up.

| 18:00 - 19:00 | Food, drinks and open networking about how to spark more curiosity in STEM into the younger generations |
Ada Lovelace Day is most often associated with raising awareness of women in STEM. However, Ada Lovelace represents more than the mere diversity agenda. Her legacy is a celebration of technology and curiosity in general.
At this year's Ada Lovelace Day we celebrate curiosity and passion for SCIENCE and Technology. 3Shape and DIKU have joined forces to introduce you to a ground-breaking project about predicting biomechanical movements and designing tools using 3D modelling, the Rainbow research project.
You can meet and talk to three young female researchers together with whom we shall explore areas of biomechanical movement analysis using 3D Scanners and Data Analysis. After the presentations, we will have an open discussion about how to spark more curiosity and interest in STEM into the younger generations.
