The African Studies Center (ASC) recently finalized a partnership with the Michigan Institute for Data & AI in Society (MIDAS) to fund seven postdoctoral researchers from Africa who apply AI methodology to address significant research questions in science and engineering. For a two-year fellowship period, the program aims to enable the substantive use of AI for breakthroughs in science and engineering and cultivate global science leaders. Specifically, the program seeks to catalyze creative and transformative applications of AI, enable a broader U-M research community to adopt AI, provide outstanding training to program fellows, and collaborate with other Schmidt Sciences’ sites to maximize the impact of the program.
I am not actively involved in the program so please address any questions to the ASC contact email asc-c...@umich.edu.
All the best,
Brian
