Providing Research Support in Interdisciplinary Social Science_
The
Independent Social Research Foundation (ISRF) is looking to support
independent-minded researchers to do interdisciplinary work which is
unlikely to be funded by existing funding bodies. It is interested in
original research ideas which take new approaches, and suggest new
solutions, to real world social problems.
The Foundation intends to make a small
number of awards to support original interdisciplinary research, across
the range of the social sciences, to be held from a start date no later
than the end of December 2014. Scholars from within Europe are eligible
to apply. The award is intended to enable a
scholar at the early career stage to pursue his/her research full-time,
for a period of up to 12 months. The applicant should normally hold a salaried position at an institution
of higher education and research, and be within 10 years of PhD award.
Career breaks may be taken into account.
