humanities. The Danish IAS engages leading academics through its visitor
programme, weekly lectures, and quarterly colloquia. There is a strong
focus on talent development of young researchers who work on game-changing
ideas. Eminent academics are appointed as chairs, and in that capacity form
the backbone of the Danish IAS as they catalyze activities within their
field.
