Today, we are welcoming a new cohort of Fellows as the academic year 2025-26 begins. As always the Fellows represent a broad range of disciplines and universities/organizations in many different countries, which contributes to the unique environment that is an institute for advanced study.

Read more about the Fellows who will be in residence during the upcoming year here.

The regular Fellow seminar series will start on Tuesday, 23 September, with a talk by our new Non-resident Long-term Fellow Professor Naoko Shimazu on “Visualising Diplomacy in Cold War Asia". This will be followed by a talk by Professor Johan Elverskog, who will be "Rethinking Mongol History" a week later, on the 30th of September.

Also the remaining events programme for the autumn promises an exciting variety of topics, providing a sample of the diverse range of research projects taking place within the SCAS Community. The seminars are open to the public.
