Over the course of the term, we will also have two Visiting Scholars join us for shorter periods to collaborate with Durham colleagues and Fellows: Dr Anna Krzywoszynska (University of Oulu) and Dr John Elliott (University of St Andrews).

We are also supporting several research development projects this year (see details), and we will shortly announce a further funding call to support two more of these early ideas projects.

We have a full (and evolving) Term Card of events which lists Fellows’ activities, and well as events for both projects and visiting scholars. Details can also be found on the IAS website.
