The Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES) welcomes 17 Visiting Scholars who will be in residence during the 2023-2024 academic year. These scholars represent many social science disciplines and hail from institutions based in 11 countries.

We invite you to explore their biographies as well as attend the weekly New Research on Europe Seminar where these scholars will present their research.

This year's John F. Kennedy Memorial Fellows are Catharina Peeck-Ho and Ines Wagner. The German Kennedy Memorial Fellowship was awarded to Thục Linh Nguyễn Vũ.
