Six Carlsberg Monograph fellowship grantees at AIAS
Six successful Carlsberg Monograph fellowship recipients have been selected for a research stay at AIAS, from 1 September 2025. The six fellows are funded by the Carlsberg Foundation and will carry out their one-year monograph research book project at AIAS.

The Carlsberg Foundation awards one-year full-time fellowships for leading, visionary researchers within the humanities or social sciences, or within interdisciplinary fields that may branch into the natural sciences, with a project aimed at publishing a ground-breaking monograph.
Successful Carlsberg Monograph Fellowships grant holders from a Danish university can apply for an AIAS Monograph Fellowship to conduct their project under optimal working conditions in an interdisciplinary, international and stimulating setting at AIAS.
Six recipients have now been awarded a Carlsberg Monograph fellowship at AIAS – the researchers come from two Danish universities, from three different faculties and span over six diverse research topics such as a study of the lymphatic vessels, minor tech and fear.
