The Faculty of Impact of the Netherlands is looking for you! Their work: turn science into impact. By supporting promising AI researchers of Dutch research institutes with a two-year fellowship. That’s two years to turn your breakthrough research into a business. But not just any business. It’s about business with a big impact. And for the record: a non-profit is a business too.

Dr. Andrea Cordaro (Institute of Physics & AMOLF), Henk van Voorst (Amsterdam UMC, location AMC) and Dr. Ruy Kortbeek (Swammerdam Institute for Life Sciences) received a Rubicon grant from NWO and ZonMW. This allows them to conduct research at an institution abroad.

The Amsterdam AI Thesis Awards aim to promote excellence in AI and Data Science from students at the Bachelor and Master level in Amsterdam-based Amsterdam-AI university partners (HvA, UvA, and VU). 

For the third year Paola Grosso (Graduate School of Informatics) and Jacobijn Sandberg (College of Informatics) organized the education day at the University of Amsterdam.
