Fellows are given the means to pursue their personal vision of a particular scientific project independently \u2013 in the best possible locations, anywhere in the world.&nbsp;The fellowship is awarded to postdocs for up to five years. Since it continues after a promotion, some fellows even become faculty members during the course of their fellowship. Besides a passion for the research itself, what Branco Weiss Fellows and Alumni also have in common is a flair for communicating beyond their own field of study and with society at large.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fellowship program was initiated and financed by the Swiss entrepreneur Dr. Branco Weiss, who passed away in October 2010. It is based at <strong>ETH Zurich<\/strong>. Applications from all disciplines, including social sciences and humanities, are encouraged. The selection committee is particularly eager to hear about research topics not yet represented in the fellowship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/brancoweissfellowship.org\/who-should-apply\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">webpage <\/a>and the <a href=\"https:\/\/brancoweissfellowship.org\/campaign-material.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Campaign Material<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><a href=\"https:\/\/brancoweissfellowship.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/brancoweissfellowship.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>The Branco Weiss Fellowship \u2013 Society in Science<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/brancoweissfellowship.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&nbsp;<\/a>is a community of exceptional young scientists&nbsp;who share a passion for taking research beyond the mainstream.
