Visiting Scholars
We welcome Visiting Scholars whose work aligns with the research of the DANI project. Being a Visiting Scholar here means you are our guest and collaborator for a shorter period of time. There is no “template” for how long that period of time is (could be just a few days, could be a month), or for what exactly we do with that time.
