AIAS-DANDRITE
Fellowships

Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies (AIAS) offers two-year fellowships to newly appointed DANDRITE research group leaders from the Danish Research Institute of Translational Neuroscience (DANDRITE). The purpose of the fellowship is to offer outstanding incoming DANDRITE Group Leaders the opportunity to engage and integrate with a wider interdisciplinary and international research community at Aarhus University.

AIAS-DANDRITE fellows will have a shared office at AIAS with the opportunity to participate in the activities at AIAS and at the relevant research environments at DANDRITE. AIAS offers optimal office facilities, and a thriving international and interdisciplinary community with joint social and academic activities.

AIAS - Interdisciplinary engagement and diversity

AIAS is an Institute that breaks down disciplinary and national boundaries and provides the framework and the setting for dialogue and discussions that challenge and expand the conventional ways of thinking and contribute to collaborative research. AIAS has fellows from all over the world and from all academic disciplines. DANDRITE Group Leaders will therefore be an integral part of a much wider and global research community.

Fellowship duration

The fellowship will commence on 1 September 2023 and continue until 30 June 2025.
