UKRI Artificial Intelligence Centre for Doctoral Training in Biomedical Innovation

We are Training Inter-Disciplinary Scientists to Innovate in Biomedical Artificial Intelligence Research

The greatest challenge to realising the potential of artificial intelligence in the biomedical domain is its translation into real-world use. We have co-created an AI Centre for Doctoral Training in Biomedical Innovation (AI4BI) to produce inter-disciplinary researchers with both technical skills and domain knowledge, and with experience delivering innovation into the public and private sectors.

Applications

Applications to join the programme in September 2024 are now open.
