We are pleased to announce significant growth in our ValgrAI Joint Research Unit (JRU). In an effort to consolidate our position as a reference center in artificial intelligence, we have experienced extraordinary growth, increasing from 52 to 84 elite researchers.
This substantial increase is the result of a rigorous call conducted before the summer, with strict criteria for academic excellence and research trajectory. The process has allowed us to identify and attract 32 prestigious researchers who are now joining our unit, each bringing a unique wealth of knowledge and experiences. This strategic growth significantly strengthens our ability to address the most complex challenges in the field of artificial intelligence. The diversity of specialties and perspectives that our new members bring promises to catalyze innovative interdisciplinary collaborations and expand our research horizons.With great enthusiasm, we welcome our new colleagues:
