The Einstein Forum and the Wittenstein Foundation offer fellowships for outstanding young thinkers who wish to pursue a project in a different field from that of their previous research. The purpose of the fellowship is to support those who, in addition to producing superb work in their area of specialization, are also open to other, interdisciplinary approaches—following the example set by Albert Einstein.
