Yale University received a $355,590 Project Grant award dated May 15, 2026, from the National Science Foundation's Division of Computing and Communication Foundations under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070). The award funds a CAREER project titled "Advancing LLMs for AI-Assisted Science: Evaluation, Adaptation, and Reliability" through April 30, 2031. The project will deliver openly available evaluation frameworks, benchmarks, software tools, and tutorials designed to enhance the reliability and scientific validity of large language model (LLM) applications in research. Key deliverables include new evaluation methods for scientific tasks focused on process-level and literature-grounded scientific reasoning, evidence retrieval capabilities, and mechanisms to ensure model outputs are evidence-based and appropriately qualified with appropriate confidence levels. The project addresses critical limitations in current LLM applications for science—including incomplete literature searches, reliance on weak evidence, unwarranted confidence in claims, and unfounded answers—that can waste research time and reduce trust in potentially valuable technologies. Beyond research outputs, the award supports graduate and undergraduate training, hands-on research experiences, and workforce development activities across scientific domains including computer science, medicine, biology, and physics. The research will be conducted at Yale University's New Haven, Connecticut campus.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
