Goals and Objectives

Through scientific advancements an array of economic, social, political and cultural changes are provoked and facilitated. Likewise, social processes and values impact the evolution of science and technology. The goal of this fellowship is to facilitate the new opportunities made available by science and technology and the social and cultural dimensions that these changes ignite.

The fellowship is designed for postdocs at home in physical sciences, engineering and social sciences who are willing to move between different social and scientific contexts.

The program aims to award up to ten fellowships, with a maximum duration of five years, each year. The number of recipients depends on how many applications satisfy the stringent requirements of the strategy committee with respect to the personal qualities and scientific abilities of the candidates, and the relevance of their projects.
