Grant opportunity for women and non-binary researchers in AI career development (deadline Mon 4 January 2027)

We are pleased to disseminate an opportunity for I-X Women in AI network Early Career Development grants (up to £1000) specifically for women and non-binary individuals at Master’s, PhD, or postdoctoral level at Imperial College London who are interested in learning about AI or are currently working in the field.

These grants are intended to support conference attendance, research visits, and other professional development opportunities. This initiative is part of our commitment to providing additional support for women in AI.

The application process consists of two stages. For the pre-selection stage, applicants must complete the online form, providing all the information required to justify the requested budget and explain the purpose and expected impact of the proposed activity.

Shortlisted applicants will then be invited to a 15-minute online interview (expected to take place in last week of January), consisting of a 5-minute presentation followed by 10 minutes of questions from the panel.

The deadline for this round is 4th January 2027. For enquiries regarding the grant, please contact s.veneziale21@imperial.ac.uk or r.birolo@imperial.ac.uk. For more information and the application form please visit our webpage I-X Women in AI Network.
