A recent Penn Today article on the future of AI research at Penn highlights our AI x Science Postdoctoral Fellowship as a key example of how interdisciplinary collaboration can help drive innovation in the data sciences.
The fellowship, created through a collaboration between DDDI and IDEAS, brings together postdocs from across the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Engineering to explore applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning in their respective fields. By providing a space for postdocs to regularly connect and exchange ideas, the fellowship empowers researchers to envision new ways to use AI in their disciplines. It has also helped spark collaborations between postdocs in different departments that might not have emerged otherwise.
Our AI x Science Fellowship is part of a broader Penn effort to connect data-driven researchers across the University. Check out the article here to learn how these connections not only strengthen individual projects but also help foster a research community where ideas can move freely across disciplinary lines.
