Editorial

Science Week, Dassault Systèmes' largest science and technology event, gathers renowned scientists, forward-thinking industry influencers and thought leaders from companies, universities and public institutions around the world with the objective to reveal and demonstrate how new deep science and applied technologies shape tomorrow.

In the Age of the Generative Economy, where the Age of Experiences and sustainability imperatives converge, we believe more than ever that the best way to build a better future for all is through Science. With Scientific UNIV+RSES, we turn knowledge into impact, reshaping the world through innovation. Convinced that virtual worlds can improve science practices and outcomes in many strategic domains, such as engineering, material science, medicine, biology, data science or natural sciences, Dassault Systèmes intends to catalyze how sciences open our eyes and make the invisible visible. Virtual worlds allow us to explore, understand, imagine, create, test and elevate our understanding and means to act to resolve our most significant challenges in the real world. 

Science in the Age of Experience: October 29-30

Science in the Age of Experience will underline how a new V+R scientific method with “virtual twin of everything for everyone” proposes a new category of modeling, simulation, real‑world data and AI-generated content combination and truly new kind of scientific virtual + real (V+R) experiences. Science and innovation are part of our DNA.

Scientific UNIV+RSES embody a new elevation of representations of the world revolving around knowledge, where stakeholders around a domain challenge the status quo and around know‑how to apply, impact and metamorphose our society.

11th Virtual Human Twin Experience Symposium: October 30-31

The 11th Virtual Human Twin Experience Symposium will convene the largest, sustained global community of technical and thought leaders from academia, industry, and government to share their experiences, data and vision toward the creation of virtual twins of the human body. Building on the foundational success of the Living Heart Project, this year’s symposium will explore the acceleration of the field, driven by the convergence of AI, multiscale modeling, and patient-specific data to develop smarter, safer, and more personalized therapies. The Symposium addresses the human element of the Science in the Age of Experience, showcasing how virtual twins can break down silos in medicine, alter the cost structure, power generative scientific innovations, and ultimately improve outcomes for all patients.
