In immediate response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Aarhus University and Aarhus University Research Foundation (AUFF) made a generous donation to the Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies (AIAS) that enabled AIAS to launch a fellowship programme for researchers affected by the war in Ukraine.
12 fellowships were given in this programme through the donation from the AUFF.
The AUFF-Ukraine Research fellowships at AIAS, Aarhus University were established in March 2022 to support researchers from any scientific discipline, who were affected by the war in Ukraine and unable to continue their research in the light of the situation. The fellowships allowed the selected researchers to continue their research and collaborate with other researchers in a secure, international and interdisciplinary research environment. The AUFF Fellows have been an active part of the Aarhus University research environments.
Eligibility - who could apply?
Active researcher affiliated with a research institution in Ukraine (at minimum postdoctoral level) and a PhD dregree were eligible applicants.

Fellows in the AIAS-AUFF Ukraine programme were employed at Aarhus University. Fellowships lasted for 6-12 months (with an option to apply for an extension, depending on the situation in Ukraine and available funding).
This fellowship has received funding from The Aarhus University Research Foundation (AUFF)
