MIT Intelligence Initiative Postdoctoral Fellowships
We are now accepting applications for the second round of MIT Intelligence Initiative (I2) Postdoctoral Fellowships. This program is designed to enhance and showcase interdisciplinary research on intelligence at MIT. The fellowship will be awarded only to candidates with an established independent research programs and who propose innovative research bridging at least two different MIT labs. Each Fellow will be required to organize at least one synergistic activity, such as a workshop or symposium.
New collaboration: "The VerbCorner Project"
MIT Intelligence Initiative Fellow Tim O'Donnell is part of a new collabroative project, "The VerbCorner Project," hosted by GamesWithWords.org (host of a number of large-scale Web-based research projects.)
