Positions and statements 5. Funders joint statement: use of generative AI tools in funding applications and assessment # Funders joint statement: use of generative AI tools in funding applications and assessment Generative AI tools offer potential benefits for research but also challenges and risks.
The Research Funders Policy Group, of which Wellcome is a member, sets out expectations around the use of generative AI tools in funding applications.
* Research Funders Policy Group On behalf of our Research Funders Policy Group, we recognise Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT or Bard, present opportunities and bring benefits in the context of research such as supporting content generation for computer code or assisting neurodivergent researchers or reducing potential language barriers.
When developing funding proposals, researchers must ensure generative AI tools are used responsibly and in accordance with relevant legal and ethical standards where these exist or as they develop. As best practice, any outputs from generative AI tools in funding applications should be acknowledged. Where individual funders wish to apply further specific restrictions, this will be explicitly stated.
Maintaining confidentiality is essential for safeguarding the exchange of scientific opinions and assessments. As such, our peer reviewers must not input content from our confidential funding applications or reviews into, or use, generative AI tools to develop their peer review critiques or applicant responses to critiques.
Our peer reviewers are selected for their expertise and experience in their field and we value their unique perspectives. We’re taking this proactive and collective approach to set our high-level expectations whilst we develop our own, detailed individual funding policies. Generative AI tools will continue to grow and bring new considerations – both exciting and challenging.
We’ll work together to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach, monitor developments, and minimise bureaucracy ##### **_Statement published 19 September 2023_** ## Research Funders Policy Group The Research Funders Policy Group was established in 2019 and brings together senior representatives from the UK’s major science and health research funders to discuss funding policy development and implementation, share best practice, discuss emerging issues and, where possible, achieve alignment across funding policies in the UK.
The Research Funders Policy Group is predominantly made up of science and health research funders in the UK.
The current members are: * Association of Medical Research Charities (AMRC) * British Heart Foundation (BHF) * Cancer Research UK (CRUK) * National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) * Royal Academy of Engineering * UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) The purpose of the Research Funders Policy Group is to: * support greater alignment of funding policies and implementation * reduce bureaucracy and duplication of effor t * enable funder coordination and collaboration between funders * share best practice, expertise and lessons learned * collectively respond to emerging issues (where appropriate) and/or share each organisation’s approach.
The Research Funders Policy Group is an informal group that does not have decision making powers on behalf of all its funder members. Any group recommendations will be handled within each funder’s organisations on an individual basis. Some topics are discussed within a subset of the group which feedback to the main Group.
The Research Funders Policy Group will invite UK science or health research funding organisations to join on a case-by-case basis and where there is alignment with our aims. All invitations will be reviewed and agreed by the Group. Contact the current Group Secretariat at the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR).

Wellcome Genomics in Context Awards is a grant from the Wellcome Trust that funds research integrating genomic data with clinical, environmental, and social context to improve understanding of health and disease. The program supports projects that go beyond generating sequence data to investigate how genomic variation interacts with lived experience, exposures, and biological systems. Eligible applicants include researchers at universities and research institutions globally, with preference for international collaborations. Awards fund multidisciplinary teams combining genomics, epidemiology, social science, and clinical research to generate actionable health insights.
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.
