The fellowship also includes postdoctoral opportunities for durations ranging from 6 to 24 months. Highly qualified scholars and scientists from various disciplines who have completed their doctorate less than 12 years ago are encouraged to apply.

Applicants can choose to split the fellowship into multiple stays over the three years.
