IASHThe Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) is a place and space where ideas grow.The Institute hosts a range of fellowship programmes, bringing early career and experienced researchers from across the world to Edinburgh, as well as providing opportunities for researchers from the university. It also coordinates around 100 research and public engagement events each academic year, and supports interdisciplinary projects across the College, particularly at an early stage in the pipeline. Researchers can instigate or attend themed ‘speculative lunches’, where discoveries of like-minded colleagues and cross-School synergies are made. Reading groups, seminar series and day-long workshops on topics outside the remit of a single School find a home in the convivial and well-equipped IASH seminar room. Through such facilitation—and the targeted application of seed funding—IASH helps novel interdisciplinary ideas bloom.
