Project description
Enhancing archaeological science at The Cyprus Institute
The Cyprus Institute (CyI) is a non-profit research and educational institution that is at the forefront of advancing science and technology in archaeology. In this context, the EU-funded OneArchSci project will strengthen the archaeological science group at CyI by attracting an innovative researcher to lead the team. This initiative will help to create a unified approach to archaeological science, establishing CyI as a regional leader in the Balkans, eastern Mediterranean and Middle East – a region known for its rich cultural connections and distinct identities. Professor Patrick Degryse from KU Leuven will collaborate with the Cyprus team to establish a new research facility, with the partnership extending beyond the duration of the project to ensure continued research and educational development opportunities.
Objective
OneArchSci aims to attract an innovative researcher to lead, integrate, expand and thereby significantly strengthen the archaeological science group at the Cyprus Institute. It will spearhead a One Archaeological Science approach to integrate the currently fragmented field, and position the research team as the regional leader in the Balkans, Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East (BEMME), a region that from the Bronze Age through to the Ottoman period has been culturally closely connected, while preserving distinct identities of its peoples. Concrete steps will be taken to cross sectorial boundaries, linking academic research with government agencies, NGOs and SMEs, contributing to multiple impacts on a societal level. Over a five-year period, Professor Patrick Degryse, an outstanding researcher and research manager from KU Leuven, Europe’s most successful university in terms of Horizon Europe grant income, will work with the existing team in Cyprus to establish a new formally incorporated research facility at the Cyprus Institute. We will recruit a rising star as long-term New Team Leader, supported by a team of younger researchers to enable this step change. The collaboration with KU Leuven will continue beyond the project, offering long-term opportunities for brain circulation, research and educational programme development
