Margot and Tom Pritzker Foundation

The Foundation makes grants in furtherance of its mission noted above. This year a grant was made to the university of chicago, which is required to use the grant to establish and operate a new, state-of-the-art plant biology center focused on comprehensively investigating new pathways to promote plant growth and yield increase of crops.

A grant was made to the university of chicago to train a new generation of interdisciplinary scientists, and foster new collaborations with partners worldwide. Core to this initiative was an ai+science conference organized by the school.
