INFIERI: Intelligent signal processing for FrontIEr Research and Industry

INtelligent signal processing for FrontIEr Research and Industry

KEYWORDS
Astrophysics, Applied Physics, Particle Physics, Technological Challenges for confronting Physics Objectives, Exploiting Synergies, Fostering Cross Disciplinarity.

This is a global Summer School Series covering the complete signal processing chain for building 21st-century advanced instruments.
Cutting edge instrumentation is a driving force for scientific progress, in Fundamental Research (e.g. Particle Physics or Astrophysics) as well as in many Applied Research fields like New Energies, Nanotechnologies, Medicine and Biology. Novel sophisticated signal processing schemes are a key element in building the advanced instruments of the 21st century. It is around all the aspects of the signal processing chain that the scientific and technological program of the INFIERI schools is built.

This is a 2 weeks duration school hosted each (or 2) year(s) in among the top University Campus worldwide.

The school series was Inaugurated on July 2013 at the Oxford University. Building on the success of this first school and of the following ones held in Paris (University Paris-Diderot), Hamburg (University of Hamburg), Sao Paulo (University of Sao Paulo, USP), Wuhan (University of Science and Technology, HUST), Madrid (Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, UAM), back to São Paulo, at Escola Politécnica da Universidade de São Paulo and the INOVA Center at USP for the 10th anniversary:
"TEN YEARS of FOSTERING CROSS-DISCIPLINARITY.".

In 2025, the 8th edition of the INFIERI school series was held at the University of Pisa and INFN Sezione di Pisa, and Scuola Normale Superiore, SNS di PISA, and the collaboration of the European Gravitational Observatory, EGO, and the University of SIENA.

The three-tier program comprises lectures, keynote talks and hands-on sessions.
The school only offer in person attendance as essential to the traditions of the school are the laboratory sessions and the close interactions of students with international experts in fundamental research and instrumentation from Academia and Industry.

The target audience is M.Sc., Ph.D., postdocs & early-career researchers, mainly physicists and engineers and, following the successful educational experience of INFIERI2023 at the University of Sao Paulo, USP, the new editions since then are also opened to a few high skilled last year undergraduate students, selected on basis of their academic achievements.

All the topics covered by the INFIERI Schools program include dedicated hand's on Lab to complete and deepen the lectures.content.

The 9th edition, in 2027 moves to Asia. The location, topics and organisation are "in fieri"...and the school program will follow the INFIERI schools' tradition by fostering cross-disciplinarity and innovative spirit.
