Watch again the "Paris IdeAS 2026-2027" series
The “Paris IAS Ideas” online talk series features short and stimulating presentations by fellows of the Paris Institute for Advanced Study. The talks mark the beginning of 1-month writing residencies in which fellows will write a paper with the “definitive” version of an idea of concept they have been working on for years.
These brief 20-minute presentations will be followed by interdisciplinary discussions with researchers in the social sciences and humanities. Everyone is invited to participate and contribute to the discussions, which will help inform the work of our resident researchers during their stay.
