The call is open for senior researchers and recent postdocs as well as finishing PhD students in the humanities and social sciences. They are invited to apply for a monthly stipend (1500 EUR for PhD students, 2500 EUR for all postdoctoral researchers) and a period of stay at the centre that should normally last 1-2 months. Slots are available throughout the year, and as we will allocate fellowships throughout all the months of the year, we ask applicants to indicate their preferred month(s) of stay as well as their potential flexibility.
