Cornell Tech Joins BrainChip University AI Accelerator Program

BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, event- based, neuromorphic AI IP, today announced that Cornell Tech has joined the BrainChip University AI Accelerator Program. Cornell Tech is an applied sciences and engineering campus in New York City, founded by Cornell University in conjunction with the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, both premier institutions in engineering and technology. In addition to having access to the tools and resources needed to help usher in an era of intelligent AI solutions, Cornell Tech graduate students will also have access to a course focused on brain-inspired computing as a part of the curriculum.

Cornell Tech’s award-winning researchers are driving discovery in new AI theories, methods, and applications – and improving technologies every day for all the citizens of the world - from non-profit communities and commercial organizations, to cities, hospitals, schools and more around the globe. By joining the BrainChip University AI Accelerator Program, Cornell Tech is better equipped to incorporate neuromorphic technology – that mimics the neural behavior of the human brain – into the leading-edge curriculum. As part of the agreement, a new course on neuromorphic computing will be offered by the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Cornell Tech with guidance from BrainChip.

BrainChip’s University AI Accelerator Program provides platforms, and guidance to students at higher education institutions with AI engineering programs training. Students participating in the program will have access to real-world, event-based technologies offering unparalleled performance and efficiency to advance their learning through graduation and beyond.

“Our goal at Cornell Tech is to develop leaders for the AI era who are capable of applying technical advancements emerging in industry to make a positive impact on society,” said Jae-sun Seo, Associate Professor at Cornell Tech in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. “One of the best ways to do this is to partner with those in both the private and public sectors to advance practical technology solutions that solve real-world challenges. Working with BrainChip will enhance students to obtain the resources and learning experiences they need to succeed in neuromorphic computing.”
