Human-centered Artificial Intelligence call

This is the ninth call for projects to be funded by HAI. Through the efforts of the Special Interest Groups and with help of the past seven rounds of small grants, a promising and growing community has emerged around human-centered artificial intelligence. At this important moment in the development of HAI, they want to reach out to all the collaborations and projects that are currently already underway, and that are shaping the future of Utrecht University as a focal point of AI research.

Therefore, in this round, researchers can apply for grants up to 20,000 euros meant to strengthen existing collaborations. Grants of up to 4,000 euros for small projects and grants of up to 8,000 euros for preparing a research proposal are also available. All proposals should involve at least two researchers from at least two different departments or research centres of Utrecht University. The main applicants should have a position at the UU for the duration of the project.

The focus area Human-centered AI

The focus area Human-centered Artificial Intelligence started in January 2020. It bundles the various AI-activities undertaken at Utrecht University and cuts across many different departments and research groups. By bridging research in computer science, philosophy, media and culture studies, linguistics, psychology, and other disciplines, the focus area’s aim is to foster strong and societally relevant interdisciplinary research in human-centered AI.
