The Dan David Society of Fellows is accepting applications for outstanding postdoctoral research in the study of the past. This two-year fellowship offers generous funding for international and Israeli scholars to conduct innovative research at Tel Aviv University, while benefiting from professional mentorship offered by faculty members.

The fellowship is open to candidates from all disciplines studying the human past, including but not limited to history, archaeology, art history, history of education, history of science, technology and medicine, physical anthropology, literature, philosophy, and digital humanities. Applicants must have completed their PhD between October 1, 2020, and September 1, 2025.

Up to four fellowships will be awarded for a maximum of two years each, beginning October 1, 2025. Those accepted to the program must commit to completing a full two-year term. Fellows will be asked to spend at least three days a week at Tel Aviv University and be active members of the university's scholarly community. They will be required to fully participate in the activities of the Dan David Society of Fellows, including a twice-monthly seminar dedicated to cutting-edge methodologies and historiographic approaches, and to present their research to the other fellows once a year. The program's academic activities will all be conducted in English.
