(SCAS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fellowships are designed to foster a collaborative environment where <strong>early-stage (postdoctoral-level<\/strong>) and <strong>established scholars<\/strong> can converge across a wide range of disciplines, such as archaeology, population genetics, and historical linguistics. These fields collectively explore the shared history of the world\u2019s populations over the past 10,000 years, a period marked by the advent of agrarian food production, population growth and linguistic changes, as well as the emergence of early civilisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fellowship aims to attract both junior and senior researchers interested in the human past and combining methods and materials from different disciplines. Research on three major migration events: Indo-European, Bantu, and Austronesian expansions, is the primary focus of the Centre. <br>We invite scholars interested in exploring archaeological evidence, linguistic changes, or genetic factors associated with these archaeological and linguistic expansions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1\">Deadline for applications: 1 June 2026<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-border-color has-secondary-border-color has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-b3ff805b wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--small);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--x-small);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--small);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--x-small)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-80b38047 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:0;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-bottom:0;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information, go to the SCAS website:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our earlier &amp; current fellowship projects:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-80b38047 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:0;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-bottom:0;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-b9c70379 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swedishcollegium.se\/fellowships\/human-past-fellowship-programme\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read More and Apply<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-b9c70379 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/centerforthehumanpast.se\/index.php\/research\/human-past-fellowships\/\">Human Past Fellowship Research<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Human Past SCAS Residential Fellowship Programme is an initiative by the Center for the Human Past, administered by the Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study (SCAS).
