Cornell University members receive 2023 Bowers CIS-LinkedIn grants

Nine innovative faculty members and doctoral students from the Cornell Ann S. Bowers College of Computing and Information Science were selected to receive the second round of grants from the five-year, multimillion-dollar strategic partnership between the college and LinkedIn.

This year’s awards will help fund high-impact research projects on topics ranging from large language models (LLMs) and recommender systems to dynamic information retrieval and algorithmic fairness.

Now in its second year, the Cornell Bowers CIS-LinkedIn partnership – a first for both entities – continues to make good on its primary goals: provide annual funding to Cornell Bowers CIS to support doctoral students; engage faculty through research support; amplify efforts in diversity, equity, and inclusion; and establish a research connection between scientists and engineers at LinkedIn and faculty and students in Cornell Bowers CIS, one of the top artificial intelligence programs in the U.S.
