1. FELLOWSHIP INFORMATION WEBINAR
Imperial’s I-X Centre for AI in Science launched the Eric and Wendy Schmidt AI in Science Global Faculty Fellowship, supported by Schmidt Sciences. The Fellowship assists talented faculty members from global partner institutions to use AI to enhance their scientific research, while also building sustained local capacity at their home institutions. The programme supports three cohorts of fellows each on a two-year programme (one year at Universitas Gadjah Mada, and one year at Imperial College London).
