Fellows-in-Residence Programme

CY Advanced Studies' 2025 Fellows-in-Residence Programme is a residential programme hosting max. 6 researchers from outside CY Initiative, for a period ranging from 4 to 10 months. This programme aims at promoting interdisciplinary exchanges, international collaborations, and at strengthening the attractiveness of CY Initiative partners.

All fields of research are eligible. Fellows are encouraged to develop their research in line with the research activity carried out by the CY Initiative laboratories.

Two types of fellowships are proposed:

  •       Senior fellowships:  for researchers who have obtained their PhD more than ten years ago, with a permanent position at a university or research institute. These fellowships are awarded for a duration of 4 to 10 months and, in case of long-term collaborations, can be divided into two stays.
  •       National fellowships at junior or senior level: for researchers holding a permanent position in French higher education and research institutions. For one semester, CYAS offers the possibility to host researchers during a CRCT or délégation period by reimbursing teaching costs to their home institution. 

This scheme is also open to international researchers from partner universities.

A detailed description of the Fellows-in-Residence call and the application template are available on the platform. The platform for application opens on Tuesday 15 October 2024. 

The application, in English only, is a two-stage process:

  1. The summary of the research project must be submitted by Tuesday 26 November 2024, 13:00 CET;
  2. The full application must be submitted by Tuesday 21 January 2025, 13:00 CET.
