  "account": "The Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) has announced the opening of applications for its 2027 Journalist in Residence program. Selected journalists will receive a compensation of €15,000 along with travel expenses for a stay lasting between three to six months, beginning in spring 2027 at ISTA's campus in Klosterneuburg, near Vienna, Austria.\n\nThe program targets experienced science and technology journalists working in any format. While English is the primary language used at the institute, journalists working in other languages are also encouraged to apply. Participants will gain access to over 90 research groups and an international community of more than 80 nationalities.\n\nSelected journalists will have the opportunity to attend seminars, lectures, campus events, and other research activities, as well as meet researchers and learn about ongoing scientific work across various fields. ISTA does not require participants to publish any content during the residency and ensures their full editorial independence. Journalists will also have access to ISTA facilities such as the library and gym.\n\nCompensation and accommodation expenses will be covered by ISTA, except for participants' accommodation and daily living costs. On-campus housing may be available depending on availability, or participants can find accommodation in Klosterneuburg or nearby Vienna. To apply, journalists must submit a complete application by email to journalistresidency@ista.ac.at, including a CV, a cover letter, samples of previous journalistic work, and a short residency proposal outlining their interests and the research groups they wish to engage with during their stay. Applications must be submitted before November 1, 2026.",
