About the program
FIAS supports individual research: fellows, released from teaching and academic commitments, will benefit from unsegmented time to conduct bottom-up research with the greatest freedom, with the FIAS strong scientific and extra-academic support. FIAS is designed to provide fellows with the material and intellectual conditions that will generate a significant boost to their professional careers as they can produce in a short time what would have taken years to do in the fragmented time at their home institutions, because of administration and teaching commitments. FIAS fosters intellectual exchanges: fellows get exposed to the collective benevolent intelligence of international and multidisciplinary cohorts of fellows, which brings their work to a higher, and often transdisciplinary level.
