NNF-IAS Fellowship Programme
The NNF-IAS Fellowship Programme is a collaboration between eight Nordic Institutes for Advanced Studies, coordinated by AIAS and supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation. The fellowship programme runs from from 2027 until 2032, and hosts excellent early-career researchers in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.
TIAS is an associated partner in the programme, hosting events and mobility stays.
Fully-funded fellowships in Health and Sustainability open for application
There will be four calls for applications and four two-year groups in the programme. The first fellows will start in September 2027 to work on the sub-theme of ‘Inequity in Health’.

Currently five fellowships are open for application. They are distributed among the four main partner institutes and start on 1 September 2027, lasting for 23 months until July 2029. Deadline for applying is 1 October 2026.
