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.

The aim of the programme is to enhance the quality of Swedish research and higher education by giving researchers who have recently obtained their PhDs the opportunity to pursue a postdoctoral research project at an institution abroad. Participating postdocs are thus offered the chance to experience new academic environments, become more independent and extend their international networks.

There are two versions of the programme:

Are you looking to join a small, but dynamic team working on the issues of environmental mobilities and migrations through the lens of gender? If the answer is yes, you are in right place. We have three openings on our team. The postdoctoral researchers on this post will join the GENDEREDCLIMATEMIG team hosted at the PRINTEMPS research center, affiliated to the Université Versailles Saint Quentin (UVSQ) component of Paris Saclay University. GENDEREDCLIMATEMIG is a research project funded by the European Research Council over 5 years (2023-2028).
