KNAW - Academy Colloquia 2019 (€ 23,000)

The Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) invites applications for the Academy Colloquia for the year 2019. Applications must be submitted prior to March 1, 2018. Academy Colloquia are small, exclusive expert meetings, hosted and funded by the Academy. They are held at the Academy’s Trippenhuis Building in Amsterdam. The aim is to bring together a select international group of no more than fifty top researchers to discuss a subject in which key innovations are expected.

Senior researchers (PhDs who have at least four years of post-doc experience) working at a Dutch university or research institute may apply for an Academy Colloquium. Funding is up to € 6,500 per day and a further € 3,500 to organise a master class immediately following the colloquium for a minimum of fifteen Dutch doctoral candidates. Academy Colloquia last from two to three days.
