Call for Funding by Foresight Institute "AI for Science & Safety Nodes” (Due Date: December 31, 2025 )
Description:
I would like to draw your attention to a valuable and timely funding and support opportunity that could benefit many researchers and faculty across our campus, especially those working in AI, data science, computing, biotechnology, neuroscience, nanotechnology, and AI safety.
The Foresight Institute is offering an ongoing program under its AI for Science & Safety Nodes initiative, which provides project grants, access to research and community spaces (in San Francisco and Berlin), compute resources, and invitations to relevant workshops and events for teams working at the frontier of AI-enabled science and safety research.
Key highlights of the program:
-
Funding support for innovative projects applying AI to advance science and safety, with grant sizes typically ranging from $10,000 to ~$100,000+.
-
Focus areas include AI security, privacy, decentralized AI cooperation, AI for science and epistemics, neurotechnology, longevity biotechnology, and molecular nanotechnology.
-
Project teams are strongly encouraged to participate in node activities and community engagement in San Francisco or Berlin.
-
The next application deadline is December 31, 2025, followed by monthly rolling deadlines at the end of each month.
This represents a significant opportunity for faculty and research groups to secure resources, collaborate internationally, and accelerate high-impact research at the intersection of AI and science/safety domains.
Therefore, requested to disseminate this announcement widely to faculty members and relevant departments in your esteemed campus so that interested colleagues can explore and capitalize on this opportunity before the upcoming deadline.
