Wellcome Trust:  Generative AI for anxiety, depression, and psychosis

If you have a faculty member interested in applying to any of the below opportunities, please contact Carole King at Carole.King@med.usc.edu

• Application due May 28, 2025 (accelerator stage)
• Amount is up to $3,000,000 (after accelerator stage)
• Project timeline is two years

The funder is seeking novel ways to measure the presence, nature and/or degree of depression, anxiety or psychosis with the potential for the proposed research to lead to more effective and/or more scalable therapeutic intervention in future downstream applications.

Real-world deployment of generative-AI-powered solutions is beyond the scope of this RFP.

The application process for this program is in two phases: a four-month accelerator stage followed by a separate funding call.

Only participants selected for the accelerator stage will be eligible to apply for the funding call.

Participants will join an accelerator stage for the first 4 months, which is not a grant.

Then, they will have the opportunity to apply for grant funding for up to 2 years.
