Apply now for the Einstein Fellowship 2024 for Young Thinkers. The Einstein Forum and Wittenstein Foundation is offering a fellowship for outstanding young thinkers who wish to pursue a project in a different field from their previous research.
The purpose of the scholarship 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.
