🗯️ Mental Well-being in AI Research — Thank You for Joining Us at ESSAI 2025
At this year’s European Summer School on Artificial Intelligence (#ESSAI) organised by the European Association for Artificial Intelligence @EurAI_ECCAI, the CAIRNE Rising Researcher Network hosted the third edition of our Workshop on Mental Well-being in AI Research.
Through open lunchtime discussions and a well-attended panel session, we explored the often-overlooked emotional challenges of academic life—from dealing with rejections and deadline pressure to fostering healthier, more supportive research environments. Around 80 participants—nearly half of ESSAI attendees—joined us for the panel, and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive.
Our heartfelt thanks to all who participated, especially the members of the Rising Researcher Network, and to our dedicated organisers Marie Anastacio and Mohamed Behery.
We’re especially grateful to our inspiring panel of speakers:
🧠 Jeremy Pitt – Imperial College London
💬 Amanda Figueras – CoAct, Universitat de Barcelona
🤖 Mohan Sridharan – The University of Edinburgh
🧑🔬 Dr. Roman Kalkreuth – RWTH Aachen University
And of course, thank you to ESSAI for once again hosting and supporting this essential conversation.
Mental health matters in AI research. Let’s keep the discussion going—together.
