Postdoctoral fellowships allow a scholar to spend a period of time at the institute without any obligations other than to revise his or her dissertation for publication as a book.
Fellows are welcome to participate in the intellectual life of the institute.
All fellows will have access to the university's libraries, the institute's reading room, archives, lectures, and discussions. Applicants must have completed dissertations within the preceding three years. To apply, a scholar must write the assistant director a letter outlining how she or he will spend time revising a dissertation for publication. Besides forwarding a curriculum vitae and substantial portions of the dissertation, applicants should ask three scholars who are familiar with their work to forward letters of evaluation and recommendation.
