We are training inter-disciplinary scientists to innovate in Biomedical Artificial Intelligence research The greatest challenge to realising the potential of artificial intelligence in the biomedical domain is its translation into real-world use. We have co-created an AI Centre for Doctoral Training in Biomedical Innovation (AI4BI) to produce inter-disciplinary researchers with both technical skills and domain knowledge, and with experience delivering innovation into the public and private sectors. Join Our CDT Applications for our 2026 cohort have just closed. Sign up to our mailing list to get notified of the future recruitment opportunities.Register your interest Research You will undertake innovative research co-designed with external partners, developing and applying AI methods to meet real world challenges in biomedical domains. Training You will be trained across a wide range of topics in artificial intelligence, biomedical & health science, high performance computing & software engineering, responsible innovation & entrepreneurship. Environment The AI4BI CDT is hosted in the School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh. We are the largest computing science department in the UK and one of the largest in Europe.School of Informatics Our 2024 cohort showing off their AI4BI hoodies Some of our students enjoying the view on the Informatics terrace Nada Malou (Medicins sans Frontieres) speaking at our Biomedical AI Cross-Sector Forum in March 2025 Speakers for our AI for Genomics event at the Nucleus building in June 2025 Our students, Melina Müller and Bianca Branco, alongside other University of Edinburgh PhD candidates, running their own workshop as part of Edinburgh Science Festival in March 2025.
