INTERNATIONALISATION - AU gives researchers free rein

With the new Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies (AIAS), Aarhus University is offering excellent researchers from all over the world and a wide range of fields the freedom to devote themselves to their work in an attractive setting.

The first AIAS Fellows’ Seminar attracted researchers from many different fields. After the presentation, discussions continued in a more informal setting in the foyer of the AIAS building. Marie Braad Lund is a Dale T. Mortensen Fellow at AIAS, where she is currently studying the earthworm symbiosis system. She did her PhD at Aarhus University and then went on to study marine nitrogen cycling at Stanford University.
