Data-Driven Plasma Science
ICDDPS-8
8th International Conference on Data-Driven Plasma Science
5–9 April 2027·KAIST, Daejeon, Republic of Korea
Welcome
On behalf of the Executive Scientific Committee, we are delighted to welcome you to the 8th International Conference on Data-Driven Plasma Science (ICDDPS-8), which will be held at KAIST in Daejeon, Republic of Korea, from 5 to 9 April 2027.
Since the first meeting in York in 2018, ICDDPS has brought together the fusion, low-temperature plasma and data-science communities to explore what data-driven methods can do for plasma science. Following ICDDPS-7 in Kiel, the eighth edition brings the series to Korea for the first time. It will be held in Daejeon, a research city that is home to national programs in fusion.
The conference is planned in the tradition of the series, with plenary, invited and contributed talks, and posters.
We hope you will join us in Daejeon in cherry-blossom season.
