Leading UK researchers will develop cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) technologies through prestigious fellowships announced today, 27 November. The novel AI techniques they will develop could have wide-ranging impact, for example: combatting cancer developing digital twins that can aid us in modelling and understanding air pollution improving cybersecurity through developing more robust and transparent AI algorithms.
New papers show UK Research and Innovation (UKRI)-funded research in the largest space data collection ever produced. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is leading a unique collaboration with Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, European Space Agency (ESA) and Roscosmos State Corporation for Space Activities.
Plastic pollution is one of the world’s biggest environmental challenges. This investment by UKRI aims to reduce its impact on communities and the environment by supporting interdisciplinary research teams to investigate ways to combat or mitigate the effects of plastic waste in developing countries.
