About the L.I.F.E Fellowship

Machine learning and computer modeling are changing the face of medicine. The next breakthroughs will require scientists and innovators eager to tackle hard problems around human health.

Local Initiative For Excellence (L.I.F.E.) Foundation Fellowships provide four-year scholarships and research stipends for highly-motivated undergraduates at NKU who major in the computational sciences and minor in the life sciences.  L.I.F.E. fellows get the chance to work on multiple research teams during their time at NKU. The fellowship serves to jumpstart the next generation of computationally-grounded biomedical researchers who will then further their education in graduate school.
