Through collaboration with international experts and interaction with the innovation ecosystem that Fondazione CRT and ISI Foundation have fostered over the years, these researchers not only gain advanced skills but also shape ideas and solutions that contribute to collective well-being and the future of our communities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro Vespignani, President of ISI Foundation, added: &#8220;The Lagrange Fellowships, supported by the Lagrange Project \u2013 Fondazione CRT, are an opportunity not only from an academic perspective, enabling fellows to acquire concrete skills and vision in data science and artificial intelligence, but also as a professional and life experience. Over the years, the many young talents who have collaborated with ISI Foundation researchers and its numerous international partners have directly engaged with the great cultural, economic, and social challenges of today. They have contributed to addressing these challenges by interpreting data and its impact on society. This is a significant responsibility, aiming to protect human lives, uphold rights, and improve our communities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new call by Fondazione CRT and ISI Foundation for 10 applied research fellowships is now online.
