WhiteBox Research is currently holding an interpretability fellowship in Manila. 11 participants are currently in our fellowship’s guided research phase, 6 of whom will use Neel Nanda's 200 Concrete Open Problems to rapidly upskill in mechanistic interpretability. We are currently funded by the Long-Term Future Fund and Manifund.

Some of the fellows in our first cohort include:
- an IOI silver medalist
- an Iranian Geometry Olympiad bronze medalist
- an AI engineering technical manager and former trainer for the Philippine IOI team

Other fellows have also won first and third places in recent Apart Hackathons.

Examples of such fellowships include: MATS Winter Cohort 2024-2025, SPAR, Apart Lab, etc. We will only count such a fellowship if it’s explicitly geared towards doing research, but will otherwise not require actual publication of a paper.
