Seed & Feed funding event SIG AI, government and behavior

to

Are you interested in doing interdisciplinary research? And how you can get seed funding for this? We offer a morning of listening to inspiring colleagues and matchmaking opportunities during lunch.

Multiple perspectives

Within the area of AI, government and behavior, researchers often have similar questions about, for example, transparency, accountability, trustworthiness and use of AI by government. These questions can be approached from various angles and, often, one question or problem cannot be answered from just one perspective. To develop good AI applications researchers need to consider these angles and collaborate.

Interdisciplinary collaboration

During our new Special Interest Group event, you are invited to work across disciplines on a research proposal. You will learn about good practices in interdisciplinary collaboration from Merijn Bruijnes (Utrecht University School of Governance), Marijn Schraagen (Informatics) and Leendert van Maanen (Cognitive Psychology) and get to know like-minded researchers from various disciplines.
