Feryal Clark MP has joined Kad’s leading King interdisciplinary scientists and has launched a new program that draws expertise from all fields such as biological sciences, humanities, mathematics, safety, and law.
The Masters is part of the King’s major £45.5 million investment in science and helps us tackle some of the biggest challenges we all face. This investment is to strengthen the skills of the whole science and strengthen exploration of the whole science through education, research and cutting-edge facilities.
Minister of AI and Digital Government Fellar Clark said: “AI is changing how we solve the world’s biggest challenges. This new master’s degree from Kings is ready to turn scientific ambitions into real-world solutions.
The visit was organized by King’s College London Vice President and President, Professor Citizikapoor and Minister Clark, who saw the ongoing interdisciplinary AI research of experts who provide education for new courses and lead the digital revolution in science.
Professor Citizikapoor, vice president and president of Kings College London, said, “This year we are pleased to welcome Minister Clark to the Kings for the second time. Kings is at the forefront of interdisciplinary AI research and innovation, and will help build this programme both through this programme, and through this programme. Research on scale and research across fields look forward to continuing to help the government realize its bold ambitions for the future of AI.
Dr. Dannicolau AI, Science Program Lead at King’s College London, said: “AI in science programs is for science or mathematics alumni and seeks to be at the forefront of scientific discovery. It provides a thorough foundation for AI technologies and applications to solve complex, real-world scientific challenges.
“The program will help students enter the dynamic and uncertain job markets defined by the need to remain flexible, and this is at the forefront of the development of AI technologies that will change practices in these sectors, industrial, academic and public sectors.
“Students will become bilingual in science and AI, grasp the latest technological, social, ethical and legislative developments and thrive in the future as AI science natives.”
At launch, Dr. Heba Saileem, a senior lecturer in biomedical AI and data science, shared how he is developing AI approaches to improve patient care and welfare.
Dr. Francisco Martin Marinez, Senior Lecturer in Chemistry, explained how AI and materials science are combining it to address the country’s £143 million pothole problem, developing self-healing, sustainable roads made from recycled oil.
The Feryal Clark MP was then demonstrated a support robot programmed by King’s researchers to help people live longer, for example by helping people feed themselves.
Science Master’s AI presentation was successful in launching a new undergraduate course in natural sciences in 2024, and is in the top ten of British natural sciences (Qs by Subject 2025).
