NIAS-Lorentz Theme-Group Fellowships, Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study, Amsterdam, Netherlands. Deadline: 1 September 2025.
A NIAS-Lorentz Theme Group (NLTG) is an international team of three researchers, including a coordinator, who come together for a five-month period at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study (NIAS) to pursue collaborative, interdisciplinary research.
The group conducts cutting-edge work that bridges the divide between the humanities and/or social sciences and the natural and/or technological sciences. Their collaboration often results in concrete outputs such as an edited volume, scientific publication, or a proposal for external funding (e.g. ERC).
The NLTG is particularly intended for early to mid-career researchers who wish to explore and establish new interdisciplinary fields of research through close interaction with colleagues from other academic disciplines.
Team Format: A group of three researchers (including the coordinator), working together for five consecutive months at NIAS in Amsterdam.
Timing: The NLTG takes place in the second semester of the academic year 2026 – 2027 (February–June 2027).
