Funder AI policy

Can applicants use AI on an application to Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society?

It depends on the program.

The only AI rule on these pages comes from the Helen H. Glaser Student Essay Award requirements. It limits AI to light editing and requires an AI statement plus the prompts. Treat this as a rule for that program only, not for all AΩA applications. The pages give no guidance for reviewers.

Depends on the program. The funder sets the rule in each program's guidelines, so check the program a PI is applying to.

What applicants may do

  • Applicants to the Glaser essay award may use generative AI tools for limited editorial assistance, such as grammar, spelling, or organization. [1]

What the funder asks of applicants

  • Authors must put an AI statement on the cover page. It must say whether AI tools were used and, if so, describe how they were used. [1]
  • Authors must include all AI prompts in an appendix to the essay. The title page must also carry an AI attestation statement. [1]

What is off limits

  • Applicants may not use generative AI to produce substantive narrative content, reflections, interpretations, or storytelling. Authors must be the sole creators of the essay. [1]

If an applicant breaks the rule

  • Essays that do not meet all requirements, including the AI rules, will not be considered. [1]

This is a reading of what the funder has published, and it is not legal advice. A solicitation can set its own rule, so read the funding announcement before a PI applies.
