Google DeepMind, Google Cloud to Allow European Researchers Access to Frontier Models
The offer includes AlphaFold 3, WeatherNext and other models to speed research on weather, biology and molecules.
- Google DeepMind and Google Cloud will provide up to 200 European researchers with direct access to frontier models and $3 million in compute credits, the company announced on Wednesday.
- The offer operates through the European Union's RAISE program, a virtual institute launched in November 2025 to help scientists utilize artificial intelligence for research.
- Researchers gain access to scientific tools including AlphaFold, WeatherNext, AlphaGenome, AlphaEvolve, and AlphaEarth Foundations, enabling tasks from mapping DNA to forecasting extreme weather patterns.
- Maureen Costello, Google Cloud vice president, wrote that these tools will help teams solve complex problems more quickly, from mapping molecules to predicting extreme weather.
- Google has not yet disclosed how researchers will be selected, when access begins, or how the $3 million in credits will be distributed among participants.
