National Advisory Board
Researchers at the Pioneer Centre for AI aim to address societal challenges through fundamental research and interdisciplinary problem-solving. In order to ensure that the research has a relevant societal impact we aim to facilitate close ties between our researchers and experienced professionals with a strategic view.
The Pioneer Centre for AI’s National Advisory Board (NAB) consists of domain experts outside of the universities who can advise researchers, exchange ideas, and elicit new perspectives.
NAB members and experts in their networks will mentor PhD students and advise centre leadership on new partnerships, providing a valuable link between pure research and societal needs and opportunities. The centre’s 7-step plan will help to facilitate the researcher-domain expert interactions.
Very honored to have been invited to join the National Advisory Board of the Pioneer Centre for AI to help inspire and support young AI talent. Especially now, we need young people to keep believing in improvement, because they are the ones that can do it! —Jens Brehm Bagger Nielsen, Head of AI Accelerator, Ph.D., M.Sc.E.E. at WSAudiology
