He previously held a research scientist position at A*STAR, Singapore, and received his PhD from Nanyang Technological University. His work has appeared at ICML, NeurIPS, AAAI, and TPAMI, and he received the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Prize Paper Award in 2023.

Chenghao Liu

Chenghao Liu

Research Scientist, Datadog

Specializing in large-scale forecasting systems, anomaly detection, and machine learning for cloud infrastructure and observability platforms. His research focuses on robust temporal modeling under noisy and heterogeneous operational environments, with applications to monitoring and reliability systems.

N. Benjamin Erichson

N. Benjamin Erichson

Research Scientist, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory; Group Lead, Deep Learning, ICSI

Working on methods for processing sequential data, with a particular interest in continuous-time formulations, state-space models, linear attention, and neural architectures inspired by dynamical systems. His work has appeared at ICML, NeurIPS, ICLR, and AISTATS. He previously co-organized the NeurIPS 2024 and ICLR 2026 Workshop on Foundation Models for Science.

Concurrent workshop organization. None of the organizers are organizing another NeurIPS 2026 workshop concurrently, except Danielle Maddix Robinson, who is a co-organizer of “From Scientific Foundation Models to Agentic AI Scientists: Reliable and Reusable AI for Computational Discovery.”
