The Pufendorf IAS stimulates interdisciplinary research within Lund University. The Institute supports researchers working together across disciplinary borders to develop new areas of research. The Institute announces yearly calls for application to Themes and Advanced Study Groups. Researchers/teaching staff (with PhD or equiv.) employed by Lund University are now invited to apply for Themes and Advanced Study Groups, starting in 2025.
Theme applications
A Theme must be innovative in nature and revolve around a research issue which can best be explored through knowledge from several disciplines in collaboration. Focus should be on paving the way for future research opportunities.
Researchers at Lund University are now invited to apply for the opportunity to establish a Theme at the Pufendorf IAS starting in September of 2025. The application must be received by the Institute no later than December 9 2024.

ASG applications
An Advanced Study Group (ASG) gathers researchers from different disciplines around a shared research issue. An ASG provides an opportunity to exchange ideas and perspectives on a research issue that is still at a very early stage of development.
Advanced Study Groups are admitted twice a year through an open call.
The application deadline for groups starting in February 2025 is November 10, 2024.
Deadline for applications to start an ASG in September 2025 is May 10, 2025.
