The Evidence for AI in Health (EVAH) initiative is a $60 million joint investment by the Gates Foundation, Novo Nordisk Foundation, and Wellcome Trust to support rigorous, country-led evaluations of AI health tools in low- and middle-income countries. Delivered in partnership with J-PAL and the African Population and Health Research Center, EVAH funds evaluations of AI-enabled clinical decision support tools in primary and community healthcare settings across Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Pathway A supports early-deployment evaluations focusing on usability, workflow integration, and safety for up to $1 million. Pathway B funds randomized controlled trials, economic analyses, and implementation science studies of tools ready for deployment at scale for up to $3 million. The initiative addresses a critical evidence gap about whether AI diagnostic and clinical decision support tools actually improve health outcomes in resource-limited settings.
The Gates Foundation AI to Accelerate Charitable Giving Grand Challenge seeks innovative AI solutions that transform philanthropic giving. The RFP addresses the question: How might AI support donors to give more and give sooner? Projects must address one of three challenge areas: (1) Donor Discovery & Connection — helping donors identify aligned causes through recommendation engines, personalized learning tools, and impact visualization; (2) Convert Intent to Action — reducing barriers preventing motivated donors from completing donations through streamlined giving processes and community-building systems; (3) Foundational Infrastructure — building underlying data systems and standards for philanthropic AI including data pipelines, nonprofit interoperability with AI agents, and fraud detection. Solutions benefiting global health and development in low- and middle-income countries receive priority consideration. Grantees must participate in up to three learning convenings with peer organizations. Applications are submitted through the Gates Foundation portal at submit.gatesfoundation.org.

The Kavli Foundation sponsors an AI-for-Science Postdoctoral Fellowship through FutureHouse's Independent Postdoctoral Fellowship program, supporting one fellow per cohort to pursue an independent, AI-enabled research project in neuroscience. The fellowship provides a $125,000 annual stipend plus comprehensive benefits, travel allowance for conferences, dedicated software engineering support for building AI research tools, access to advanced computational resources (GPU clusters and cloud computing), and wet lab access for experimental validation. Fellows work in collaboration with an advisor or co-advisor who is a member of a Kavli Institute, pursuing bold, curiosity-driven projects in neuroscience ranging from molecular and cellular mechanisms to systems-level understanding of the brain. The fellowship begins September 2026 and runs for one year with a possible one-year extension. Research areas include AI-driven analysis of brain imaging data, machine learning for neural circuit mapping, computational neuroscience models, AI tools for analyzing large-scale neural recordings, and deep learning applied to connectomics and brain-computer interfaces.
