The Malcolm H. Wiener Laboratory for Archaeological Science of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens offers fellowship funding for study at the laboratory. Applicants from any college or university worldwide, as well as independent scholars, are welcome to apply.

Priority will be given to question-driven research projects that address substantive problems through the application of interdisciplinary methods in the archaeological sciences. Wiener Laboratory facilities are especially well-equipped to support the study of human skeletal biology, archaeobiological remains (faunal and botanical), environmental studies, geoarchaeology (particularly studies in human-landscape interactions and the study of site formation processes), and ancient materials studies.
