As part of her announcement, Hochul shared plans to build and utilize a state-of-the-art artificial intelligence computing center that will be located at UB to facilitate innovation, responsible research and economic development.
The faculty projects could help research teams overcome barriers to collaboration, promote the wider adoption of direct current microgrids, use protein analysis to understand how much harmful material remains in wastewater after disinfection and more.
Four UB faculty researchers will serve as key members of a new initiative to secure the U.S. Department of Defense’s most critical artificial intelligence models, while also accelerating the technology’s commercialization in the private sector.
The project, supported by Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, will tap UB’s expertise in materials science, advanced manufacturing, AI and more.
