HORIZON-RAISE-2026-01-03 is the doctoral training instrument of the European Commission's RAISE pilot, the Resource for AI Science in Europe, and it funds doctoral networks dedicated to the development and application of artificial intelligence in science. The indicative budget is 30,000,000 euros across three sub-areas, standard doctoral networks, industrial doctorates and joint doctorates, the type of action is HORIZON TMA MSCA Doctoral Networks, the topic opened on 28 May 2026 and the deadline is 24 November 2026. The topic builds directly on the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Doctoral Networks 2026 call and effectively adds a dedicated AI-in-science channel to it, which matters because it means the proposal format, unit-cost funding model, mobility rules and evaluation criteria are the familiar MSCA ones rather than a new RAISE-specific framework. Expected outcomes are new research skills and transferable competences in applying AI in science with improved employability inside and outside academia, new knowledge that can be converted into products and services, and strengthened networking and communication capacity. This sits alongside the RAISE thematic networks of excellence topics and the automated scientific discovery topics as the human-capital pillar of a roughly 90,000,000 euro AI in Science package in the Horizon Europe 2026-2027 work programme, and it is the only part of that package aimed squarely at training rather than at research output.
Germany's Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR) funds humanities and qualitative social-science research that treats generative AI as its object of study. The goal is to help society understand and responsibly shape the AI transformation. The call sits within BMFTR's framework programme Orientierung für eine Welt im Wandel. The funding guideline is dated 11 August 2026 and was published in the Bundesanzeiger as BAnz AT 25.08.2026 B2. About €15 million is available across two rounds. Universities and university hospitals receive a 20 percent overhead allowance on top of project grants. Applications have two stages: a project outline of at most 12 pages through easy-Online, then a full proposal if the outline is rated positively. Projects usually run up to three years, and early-career research groups can run up to four. Round 1 outlines are due 30 November 2026, and round 2 closes 31 May 2028. The call excludes mainly quantitative designs, pure training-data collection, AI model development without a humanities or social-science question, education research and pure digital-humanities tool development.
