The European Commission launched a formal call for scientists to join the advisory board for the Resource for AI Science in Europe (RAISE) on June 15, 2026 [1]. This virtual institute is designed to steer AI-powered research and implement the EU’s broader AI in Science Strategy [1][3]. The board will provide high-level academic guidance to ensure European researchers can effectively use advanced technologies [3].
The RAISE initiative serves as a central pillar for integrating artificial intelligence into scientific workflows across the continent [2]. Selected experts will help set priorities and coordinate digital resources within the European Research Area [2]. This recruitment effort aims to foster innovation by bridging the gap between cutting-edge AI development and traditional academic disciplines [1][3].
