The Visiting Fellowship Programme
We award visiting fellowships to scholars to pursue research on the history of instructions and colonial collecting at our research environment in the department of History of Science and Ideas at Uppsala University.
Each semester we invite 1–2 scholars to join us and we welcome applications from both junior and senior scholars. During a period of 1 to 4 weeks to be taken during the term time, the scholars have the opportunity to present their research and interact with the Instructing Natural History group. It is encouraged that Fellows will use the fellowship to launch collaborative research, joint publications and/or joint funding applications with researchers in the Instructing Natural History group.
The fellowship covers travel costs and accommodation in Uppsala during a period of maximum one month. Visiting fellows are provided with office space.
The Visiting Fellowship Programme is a part of Linda Andersson Burnett’s Wallenberg Academy Fellowship and is funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation and the Department of History of Science and Ideas at Uppsala University.
