# Bringing GPT‑Rosalind to academic research labs

**[OpenAI](https://daily.dev/sources/openai)** · 5 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

OpenAI is launching the Rosalind Academic Plan, offering eligible academic labs at U.S. universities sponsored access to GPT-Rosalind, its specialized life sciences model, plus the Rosalind Workbench for tool orchestration across medicinal chemistry, genomics, and wet-lab assistance. Eligible labs can get up to 30 Business Standard seats free for up to 12 months, along with access to other commercially available OpenAI frontier models, subject to trusted-access approval. PIs and lab leads apply through a trusted-access process involving identity verification, institutional review, and ongoing safety monitoring. Data shared is not used to train models by default. API access is not included.

## Questions this post answers

### What is included in OpenAI's Rosalind Academic Plan for university labs?

Eligible academic labs at U.S. universities can receive up to 30 Business Standard seats at no cost for up to 12 months, including access to all commercially available frontier OpenAI models plus GPT-Rosalind following trusted-access approval. API access is not included. Research data shared through the plan is not used to train OpenAI's models by default.

### How do I get my university lab approved for GPT-Rosalind access?

PIs and lab leads at universities without an existing OpenAI Enterprise agreement apply through OpenAI's trusted-access process, while labs at universities with an existing agreement apply through their university's Enterprise access process. OpenAI verifies the institution's legitimacy, reviews the lead's professional background and authority, assesses intended use, and establishes a designated institutional safety contact before activation.

### What kind of research can GPT-Rosalind be used for?

GPT-Rosalind supports complex biological reasoning tasks including drug and protein design, medicinal chemistry, genomics, and wet-lab assistance, with specialized tool orchestration through the Rosalind Workbench. Approved researchers can investigate sensitive scientific questions such as designing candidate drugs, therapeutic proteins, peptides, and enzymes, with safeguards for legitimate research use.
