Following an incredible year of research, all our FDL 2025 teams will be presenting their work at NeurIPS this year in San Diego.
FDL's commitment to pushing the boundaries of applied AI for the good of humankind is well-documented, with previous projects earning "Best Paper" and “Overall Best Paper”‘ awards at NeurIPS previously. At the conference, our teams will be showcasing their papers and posters at specific events, and we are especially proud that one of our teams will deliver a spotlight talk.
We invite you to attend the conference and see firsthand how FDL's research is helping to solve some of the world's most pressing challenges.
In August 2025, FDL Earth Systems Lab presented three big AI research outcomes to improve how we understand and predict Earth’s changing systems and offer a window on how we might build a ‘Mission Control for Earth’. Leveraging the European Space Agency’s missions and funded by ESA Φ-lab, this initiative combines fresh datasets with innovative AI tools to give the global community better ways to track and respond to our planet’s most urgent environmental shifts.
“Guided by artificial intelligence, driven by human good”. This could be FDL Earth Systems Lab (ESL)’s motto. ESL is a research collaboration framework funded by ESA Φ-lab and implemented by Trillium Technologies, with the support of University of Oxford, Google Cloud, NVIDIA, Scan AI, and Pasteur ISI. It focuses on artificial intelligence (AI) – in particular machine learning (ML) – to support Earth sciences, helping researchers create practical tools for some of humanity’s toughest challenges with the best of motivations: ‘planetary stewardship’.
