Specialists in artificial intelligence or AI, big data, virology, epidemiology and UAE high school top graduates and their families are also eligible.

This was announced by the UAE Cabinet in order to attract and retain experts and talented professionals from various fields and scientific disciplines. The new categories are aimed to further encourage innovation, creativity and applied research.
