Kavli Scholars
The Kavli Scholars program supports exceptional scientists whose research has been disrupted by unexpected challenges, by providing an opportunity to continue their work in the fields of astrophysics, nanoscience, neuroscience, or theoretical physics.
Nominations are invited by Kavli-affiliated individuals, such as members of Kavli Institutes, Kavli Prize laureates, or currently-funded grant recipients. Selected Kavli Scholars receive funding for up to two years. Learn more about the program and nomination process through our grant application portal.
"Scholars transitioning to a new work environment can have a life-changing impact. Fortunately, we can help this talent continue their important research." -Cynthia Friend, President and CEO of The Kavli Foundation
