Dear all,

I am very happy that University of Bamberg won seven additional professorships for AI in the Bavarian AI competition -- more than any other university in Bavaria. One of the professorships is for Explainable Machine Learning which might be of interest to some of you. Bamberg is not a big city -- but extremely beautiful (world heritage). Find the details below.
