Ellison Scholars Projects

EIT develops and deploys technology in pursuit of solving humanity’s most challenging and enduring problems. Our multidisciplinary teams focus on four key areas of scientific and technological innovation, known as humane endeavours: health and medical science, food security and sustainable agriculture, climate change and clean energy, and government innovation and era of artificial intelligence.
