Creating the Future
Young ResearchersYoung Researchers
The young researchers are supervised by either a Hector Fellow or a Hector Research Career Development Awardee within the framework of a doctoral project or an interdisciplinary project. They receive financial and non-material support from the Hector Fellow Academy and are enabled to develop in a variety of ways thanks to an individualized support program.
