International Academy Program Fellow, Goethe University of Frankfurt, Germany (2019)

Purpose: Young scientists from across the world are invited to conduct a 12-month transdisciplinary collaborative RESEARCH STAY at the Goethe University of Frankfurt/Main and to join the JQYA working on the academy platform. The research stay is exclusively dedicated to the theme “Tenets, Variations, Transformations.”

We award one international scientist per year with €60,000 as a personal grant to cover costs during the research stay. Further, we provide a furnished apartment and a fully equipped office at a prime location at low prices. The successful candidate will become an International JQYA Fellow of the Johanna Quandt Young Academy, co-shape the Academy Program, and boost his/her own scientific career.

Topic: “Tenets, Variations, Transformations” – as basic principles, tenets not only guide the practice of scientists across disciplines, but also the social and political life in our societies. Even where widely accepted, such principles are, however, subject to important variations. Any changes over time, that are transformative in scope, challenge the fundamental nature of tenets. Such shifts of paradigm result in a conceptual re-thinking: the discovery of unknown natural laws, changes of institutional policies, and the definition of novel traditions/priorities/fields, ect.

Eligibility: Advanced postdocs with proven scientific independency, independent group leaders, assistant professors with currently funded position.
