discover the focus of our fellowships
For the first fellowships, we have chosen to focus on these two topics: tackling the tobacco industry and accelerating the protein transition. These choices are based on the work of our full-time researchers, in collaboration with research from external parties.
We trust in the ability of small, passionate teams to drive substantial global change. In our programs, we bring together such groups of talented individuals to tackle the most urgent problems of our time.
