Each project aims to help students get a taste of ML Safety research and explore interesting directions by some cool researchers in the field.

To apply to any of these projects, please fill out the form here. Once you apply to a project, we decide whether to send your application to the project mentor. The mentor then decides which participants they want to work with; note that there may be additional application steps (e.g. an interview) if the mentor desires it. We will also have a tentative soft cap of sending an individual's applications to at most two mentors, so please only apply to projects that you are strongly interested in and can satisfy their respective time requirements (generally at least 8-10 hours/week).
If you have any questions, queries or concerns feel free to reach out at [email protected], or post on the BASIS slack.
