The Sloan Foundation Metascience and AI Postdoctoral Fellowship supports early-career researchers studying how artificial intelligence transforms the research ecosystem. Fellows examine how AI is reshaping scientific practice, peer review, knowledge production, research evaluation, scientific labor markets, the structure of research institutions, and the integrity of scientific knowledge.
The fellowship is part of Sloan's broader Metascience and AI initiative, which seeks to understand and improve how AI is integrated into and transforms research workflows across all scientific disciplines.
Topics of interest include AI-assisted peer review, AI for research synthesis and meta-analysis, AI co-scientists and autonomous research agents, AI's impact on scientific productivity and the scientific workforce, and the implications of foundation models for the scientific enterprise.
