ITU researcher secures DKK 6.99 million for linguistically grounded language models
Carlsberg Foundation funds project to embed real-world language knowledge into AI – beyond scale and compute.
New research project explores human-AI entanglement to promote responsible use
Professor at ITU, Jichen Zhu, has secured 7.19 million kroner from the Independent Research Fund Denmark for a new project that investigates how people interact with artificial intelligence in highly subjective domains such as emotion recognition – and how to design tools that support more responsible use.
ITU researcher wants to make AI more trustworthy
Associate Professor Christian Hardmeier has been granted DKK 7.18 million from the Independent Research Fund Denmark. The grant is given for a project that investigates how large language models can better communicate uncertainty to users.
Can nature’s own design process help the next big AI leap?
ITU professor Sebastian Risi is the co-author of a new open-access resource on an emerging field that could shape the future of artificial intelligence.
Nordic project with ITU participation aims to strengthen future citizenship
In an era of algorithms, misinformation, and weakened trust in institutions, children and young people must be equipped to navigate democracy in the digital society. A new Nordic project focuses on solutions – and Associate Professor Gitte Stald from the IT University of Copenhagen plays a central role.
The climate is changing – and so are we
With a grant of 3.1 million kroner from the Independent Research Fund Denmark, Associate Professor Vedran Sekara from the IT University of Copenhagen will map how human behaviour and mobility are changing in response to climate change.
Decoding the Brain: Can AI help predict human behaviour?
What if it were possible to read the brain like a book? Paolo Burelli and his colleagues at the IT University’s brAIn Lab work at the cutting edge of digital technology and neuroscience. On 5 November, Paolo Burelli will present their research at Digital Tech Summit, in a talk titled “Decoding the Brain: How AI Unlocks Human Behavior.”
Professor Portrait: Rasmus Ejlers Møgelberg creates new mathematical worlds
With a background in mathematics and a passion for the abstract layers of the discipline, Professor Rasmus Ejlers Møgelberg develops theories that enhance the understanding and robustness of modern software. Rasmus Ejlers Møgelberg will deliver his inaugural lecture at the IT University on 24 October.
ITU researchers secure prestigious Villum Experiment grants
Projects in infant cognition, robotics, and privacy-preserving AI receive funding for early-stage research.
Professor portrait: Eva Rotenberg wants to make algorithms simpler – for everyone’s benefit
On October 3, 2025, at 14:30, Professor Eva Rotenberg will deliver an inaugural lecture in Auditorium 02 at the IT University of Copenhagen. The lecture is titled: “A story of shortest paths.”

On 24 September 2025 at 14:30, Professor Luca Aiello will give his inaugural lecture in Auditorium 0 at the IT University in Copenhagen.
Professor portrait: Marco Carbone was always going to be a computer scientist
On 19 September 2025 at 15:00, Professor Marco Carbone will give his inaugural lecture in Auditorium 02 at the IT University in Copenhagen.
ITU receives two Danish Data Science Academy Fellowships
Each year, the DDSA awards a total of 10 PhDs, and 6 postdocs. This year, ITU has secured two – Nils Grünefeld who will undertake a PhD in Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing, and Ola Rønning will begin a postdoc project in Probabilistic Programming.
ITU researcher wants to improve statistics models
Professor Andrzej Wasowski has been granted DKK 6.1 million from the Independent Research Fund Denmark. The grant is given for a project that is looking into how probabilistic models can become more reliable.
Morten Hjelholt appointed head of research
Professor Morten Hjelholt has served as interim head of research since January and is highlighted for his “commitment, conviction, and a management philosophy”. Starting 1 August, he will take on the position permanently.
ITU researchers want to bring classical music to you
Is it possible to use technology to bring arts and music closer to people? This is one of the purposes of the research project XTREME, which is investigating how mixed reality can be used to bring music and art experiences to audiences that otherwise have some barriers to experience them.
Professor portrait: Nutan Limaye is pushing the boundaries of complexity theory
On 22 May 2025 at 14:30, Professor Nutan Limaye from the section Theoretical Computer Science will present her inaugural lecture in Auditorium 0 at the IT University of Copenhagen. The lecture is entitled “My reflections on the last two decades and Complexity Theory”.
Is Denmark prepared for cyberwarfare?
A group of researchers from the IT University of Copenhagen is investigating what Denmark can learn from Ukraine in terms of preparing for cyberwarfare. Cyberwarfare does not just affect governments and companies, but also civilians, and the researchers ask what should be done if we come under attack.
Researchers aim to teach math students critical thinking with data science
In a new research project at the IT University of Copenhagen and the University of Copenhagen, a group of researchers will investigate how data science can become part of high school mathematics education to provide students with a better foundation for critical thinking and the ability to illuminate and nuance claims they encounter in their daily lives.
ITU researcher secures grant to improve safety of AI systems
At Advanced Institute of Science and Technology in Japan, Associate Professor Alessandro Bruni from ITU is currently conducting research on the mathematical foundation for developing verifiably correct machine learning frameworks. The project is supported by the Carlsberg Foundation.
