The Dale T. Mortensen (DTM) Fellowships were open for application from outstanding researchers from outside of Aarhus University, who intended to explore innovative, high-risk topics within their scientific research areas.
A Dale T. Mortensen Fellowship was available for a period of six months up to three years. The fellowships began with a long residential stay in Aarhus for at least three months, followed by long or short periods of residence, so that a total nine months were spent at Aarhus University.
The aim of the DTM fellowship was to nourish a lasting and productive collaborative connection.
Dale T. Mortensen Senior Fellows were supported with a salary and financial support for their research project: for travel costs, organization of workshops, materials etc.
