Safe Place For Science
At a time when academic freedom is sometimes called into question, Aix-Marseille Université is launching the Safe Place For Science program, offering a safe and stimulating environment for scientists wishing to pursue their research in complete freedom.
In a context where some scientists in the United States may feel threatened or hindered in their research, our university is announcing the launch of the Safe Place For Science program, dedicated to welcoming scientists wishing to pursue their work in an environment conducive to innovation, excellence and academic freedom.
As a major player in European research, Aix-Marseille University offers cutting-edge infrastructures, major international collaborations and strong support for scientists working on groundbreaking, forward-looking themes.
The AMIDEX foundation will support the funding of research positions, particularly in the fields of climate, environment, health and human and social sciences (SHS).
We expect to be able to raise up to 15 million euros for a 3-year programand and will be working with local institutions to welcome around 15 researchers.
Eric Berton - President of Aix-Marseille Université.
Due to the large number of applications received, an initial selection will be conducted starting from April 1st, based on the applications submitted by March 31, 2025
