What is CAT?

The Constructive Advanced Thinking (CAT) programme supports small, interdisciplinary teams of early-career researchers to develop innovative ideas through a series of short, funded stays at Institutes for Advanced Study (IASs) across Europe.

CAT is not a traditional research grant but a collaborative format designed to foster exchange, experimentation, and the development of new approaches in a highly interactive and interdisciplinary setting.

The initiative was developed within the Network of European Institutes for Advanced Study (NetIAS) and involves institutes both within and beyond the network, providing access to a wide range of research environments and intellectual communities across Europe.

Established by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in 2025, the Gulbenkian Institute for Advanced Study (GIAS) hosts world-class researchers, offering residencies of three to eight months.
