Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the SymGenAI4Sci Workshop on Symbolic and Generative AI for Science, taking place as part of SEMANtiCS 2025 in Vienna, Austria, from September 3–5, 2025 (hybrid format).

Workshop Theme SymGenAI4Sci brings together researchers working at the intersection of generative AI and symbolic methods to advance scientific reasoning, experimentation, and knowledge structuring. The goal is to explore hybrid approaches that combine the flexibility of generative models with the precision and explainability of symbolic AI in scientific applications.

Topics of Interest include (but are not limited to): - Generative AI tailored to scientific domains (e.g., text, tables, workflows) - Integration of symbolic reasoning with deep learning - Ontologies, schema induction, and structured knowledge generation - Human-in-the-loop and agentic AI for scientific research - Evaluation frameworks for scientific reliability and factuality - Applications in scientific discovery, data curation, or experimentation

Important Dates Submission deadline: July 20, 2025 Workshop date: September 3–5, 2025 Location: Vienna, Austria & Online

We warmly invite researchers from NLP, AI, knowledge representation, and the sciences to submit their work and join the conversation on developing more grounded, explainable, and scientifically useful AI systems.

Best regards, The SymGenAI4Sci 2025 Organizing Committee https://sga4s.semantic.foundation
