Young International Academics
3-year programme
10 interdisciplinary postdoctoral fellowships at IAS
The University of Luxembourg will receive 1.5 million euros from the European Union’s flagship research programme, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, to finance ten research projects at the Institute for Advanced Studies Luxembourg (IAS). These will be part of a new Young International Academics programme, starting in 2024 with a total budget of four million euros. The Young International Academics (YIA) postdoctoral programme will recruit and support top emerging international talents and their audacious interdisciplinary postdoctoral projects up to three years.
To be selected in this programme open to all disciplines, candidates will have to bridge at least two distinct fields in bold, original, and high impact research. Applicants will be selected by an independent scientific council in two waves and will be invited to submit their breakthrough ideas in November 2023.
