Funding Opportunities

The Navigation Fund invites a 2-page letter of intent for open science infrastructure and tools that leverage AI to make science more transparent, efficient, and trustworthy.

We are interested in funding projects that:

Apply AI in practical ways to improve scientific workflows, metadata enrichment, data reuse, knowledge discovery, or research processes.
Develop open and extensible benchmarks for open science AI workflows
Can serve a well-defined audience within the scientific community that is ready to adopt and benefit from the solution
Demonstrate the potential to accelerate research and address pressing challenges in scientific practices
Embody open science principles, delivering benefits to the broader research ecosystem
Partnership with an existing entity such as a data repository, scientific society, or other widely used resource (e.g. PubMed) would be a bonus
