The Franke Program in Science and the Humanities [https://image.message.yale.edu/lib/fe3215707564057b721d75/m/1/34d09f38-086a-43b8-81ce-62ef5844f77c.png] Franke Interdisciplinary Research Fellowships applications due Friday, august 29, 2025 Academic specialization increasingly leads to isolation among scholars and the disciplines they study, resulting in misunderstanding and the erosion of common intellectual goals. We hold that this isolation is also a barrier to research progress on interdisciplinary questions situated between traditional areas of study. The Franke Program in Science and the Humanities is founded on the twin convictions that the fundamental questions that engage humanists must be informed by basic insights of science and that meaningful scientific inquiry in turn deepens with humanistic knowledge. Thus, we are excited to announce the opening of our 2025/2026 academic year Franke Interdisciplinary Research Awards for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars at Yale. This September, the Program plans to select several interdisciplinary research projects to receive funding of $2,000 for graduate fellowships or $3,000 for postdoctoral fellowships. We welcome proposals that advance our mission of fostering communication, mutual understanding, collaborative research, and teaching among diverse scientific and humanistic disciplines.
