In 2023, I created six trusts and divided all my assets among them.
One is called Trust Agreement for Rada Research Trust.
The Agreement states that the Trust will support the legacy of the Trustor and advances in artificial intelligence.
In 2024 I began endowing awards and in 2025 semi-automating the process.
For details on those endowments, continue reading.
Wayne State University (WSU) "Rada Endowed PhD Thesis Research Award in Artificial Intelligence and Healthcare".
My Scholarship Agreements are the same, except for a few details; for instance, UMBC's scholarship is managed by its Graduate School, WSU's by its Engineering College, and UIUC's by its Medical School. The funds provide scholarships for graduate students with a hypothesis focused on the intersection of artificial intelligence and healthcare.
