[excerpt] Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing how scientific research is conceived, executed and interpreted, from analysing massive astrophysical data streams to accelerating drug discovery and improving climate and environmental modelling. Yet, the European landscape of AI enabled research remains fragmented: scientific communities, AI experts and research infrastructures often work in parallel rather than together, and strategic guidance on where to invest and how to coordinate efforts is still emerging. The SCIANCE project was launched to address this fragmentation and to help Europe turn AI into a coherent, shared engine for scientific discovery.
SCIANCE (Grant Agreement No. 101293570) is a 30 month coordination and support action that brings together 13 scientific organisations, research infrastructures and digital infrastructure providers from across Europe. Its overarching ambition is to help Europe develop a coordinated AI for Science ecosystem by developing a Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) for AI in Science, an implementation roadmap for infrastructure upgrades, and a long term cooperation framework within the Resource for AI Science in Europe (RAISE) initiative of the EU.

SCIANCE has concluded its call for experts for the AI in Science Working Groups (AISWG). Out of 665 applicants, 150 experts were selected.
The SCIANCE consortium has been positively evaluated and invited to enter Horizon Europe grant preparation, with Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva highlighting its key role in supporting the development and coordination of RAISE through a community-driven, bottom-up approach.
