The Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) is “a hub where science sparks innovation, engagement, and real-world impact. Through two annual residencies, ISTA invites journalists and artists to experience frontier research firsthand and connect scientific discovery with everyday life.
“The Journalist in Residence program promotes high-quality, independent journalism across all formats, supporting powerful storytelling that brings science closer to society. Selected candidates will spend 3 to 6 months on ISTA’s vibrant, interdisciplinary campus starting in spring 2026, gaining exclusive access to our world-class researchers across a wide range of disciplines. Journalists are expected to host interactive media training sessions and workshops, and participate in lectures and/or panel discussions to share their science communications expertise with the ISTA community.”
