            Artificial Intelligence and Fundamental Interactions (IAIFI,
            pronounced /aɪ-faɪ/) is one of the inaugural NSF AI research
            institutes. The IAIFI is enabling physics discoveries and
            advancing foundational AI through the development of novel
            AI approaches that incorporate first principles, best
            practices, and domain knowledge from fundamental physics. AI
            is transforming many aspects of society, including the ways
            that scientists are pursuing groundbreaking discoveries. To
            facilitate these advances, the IAIFI seeks a talented,
            promising, and diverse group of researchers at an early
            stage of their careers to join the IAIFI Fellowship program.
            The role of an IAIFI Fellow is to spark vital
            interdisciplinary, multi-investigator, multi-subfield
            collaborations across the primary IAIFI thrusts of
            theoretical physics, experimental physics, and foundational
            AI. Such collaborations have immense power to generate new
            ideas and approaches in both physics and AI, to facilitate
            abstracting physics challenges beyond their native domains
            to inform the development of cutting-edge AI tools, and to
            instill a common language across disciplines. Our program
            aims to appoint three new postdoctoral IAIFI Fellows each
            academic year, for a three-year fellowship term each.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
