We aim to be the home of academic experimentation and freedom, where top-flight researchers are able to explore new territory in a cross-disciplinary direction and interact with visitors in an exciting environment.

The IAST Research Program is organized around 5 broad themes:
Individual and Social Networks
Governance and Markets
The Nation State and Global Public Goods
Society, Globalization and Public Policy
Individual motives, Actions, Innovation and Well Being

The Institute welcomes applications within these themes from researchers within a large range of disciplines, such as anthropology, biology, history, law, philosophy, political science, psychology and sociology, though motivated applications from any other discipline will be given full consideration. Applications from economists are also encouraged, but successful applicants will have demonstrated an interest in, and a commitment to, at least one of the other non-economics disciplines of the IAST.

Eligible applicants:
The IAST invites scholars from a large applicant pool for visits ranging from 1 month to 1 year. The group is interdisciplinary and international, and scholars are expected to pursue their own research. A completed doctorate or equivalent is required of all applicants.
