Team

The HCAS’s research is based on the trusting and intense collaboration of outstanding researchers crossing the boundaries of academic disciplines, who contribute to the project their expertise on various eras and regions.
Numerous scholars from all over the world will join the HCAS team for that reason within the next years. The fellowship programme is thus central for the HCAS’s working process.
