The purpose of the fellowship is to support those who, in addition to producing superb work in their area of specialization, are also open to other, interdisciplinary approaches – following the example set by Albert Einstein.
The Einstein Forum and the Daimler and Benz Foundation are offering a fellowship 2021 for outstanding young thinkers who wish to pursue a project in a different field from that of their previous research.
The deadline is on 15 May 2020.
The fellowship 2021 includes
Living accommodations for five to six months in the garden cottage of Einstein`s own summerhouse in Caputh, Brandenburg, only a short distance away from the universities and academic institutions of Potsdam and Berlin. The fellow will receive a stipend of EUR 10,000 and reimbursement of travel expenses.
