The Asian Young Scientist Fellowship aims to encourage and support young scientists in Asia to carry out creative and transformative research.  The Fellowship supports early-career scientists in three fields: 1) Life Science, 2) Physical Science, and 3) Mathematics and Computer Science.

The Fellowship is designed to enable early-career researchers to freely explore their areas of interest in science.  The 2-year program provides opportunities for fellows to explore new avenues of research, gain exposure to diverse perspectives, and engage a network of international colleagues.

Countries: AYSF accept nominations from the following countries in the Asia region, including China (Mainland, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan), India, Japan, Korea, and Singapore.
