My understanding is that it’s currently focused on nonprofits (in large part because it’s much more logistically and legally complicated to send money to individuals)
I understand that they cannot make grants to individuals, but researchers in academia are part of a university which is a charity (501(c)(3) in the US). So legally it would be the same as a focused charity, but still it is a question of whether they would likely make a grant like that.

I asked Critch about this today and he said it seemed fine.
My guess is that that is possible, though I am only 80% confident.
