ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ

Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ encourages more collaborative, transdisciplinary, long-term and sustainable research projects with public and private organisations. With the start of the AI Labs, we aim to provide external parties and sectors with the means to address their (societal) challenges through AI and Data Science research and techniques, and to collaborate with interdisciplinary science teams at Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ.

The Faculties of Science, Geosciences and Humanities have allocated funds to encourage researchers at Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ to collaborate with each other and to attract funding from external parties. For this purpose, they have identified three domains where interdisciplinary collaboration can be started in AI Labs.

•    AI & Sustainability
•    AI & Life Sciences 
•    AI & Digital Humanities  

The three AI Labs are open to researchers from Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ that have concrete plans to collaborate with external parties on any of the labs-themes. We would like to invite you to send us your inter- and transdisciplinary project ideas that could fit within one of these labs.

The previous (September 2021) call to action resulted in 7 projects being funded. For 2022 we will have two more deadlines.

Submission dates

• 1 March 2022 – The second submission deadline (any time on earth)
• 1 September 2022 – The third submission deadline* (any time on earth)

*if sufficient funds remain after the second round
