Novel projects, AIAS diversity and Aarhus University collaboration

While at AIAS, the new AIAS fellows will have time to concentrate on and develop their individual research projects in collaboration and networking with faculty members and research environments at Aarhus University – as well as engaging with the current and former AIAS fellows.

Meet the Fellows

To meet with the new and current fellows and hear about their individual research projects, the ‘Joint Research Presentations: Extended Fellows' Seminar’ on 9 October 2019 at 10.30am -16.00pm is open to all and will have short 6-minute research presentations by all AIAS Fellows.
