Current fellows 2026–2027

A light gray and blue poster announcing the 2026–2027 Fellows in Greece for the Center for Hellenic Studies, Harvard University, featuring headshots and names of nine fellows organized by fellowship category.

The 2026–2027 fellows form a diverse cohort who work with CHS Greece to promote academic research. As part of their collaboration with the Center, all fellows become active members of the CHS global academic community. They receive an appointment for at least one academic year, which includes –among other provisions– the title of CHS fellow as well as remote access to Harvard's online libraries and resources for the entire duration of their fellowship. The exact dates and provisions of their appointment vary according to the fellowship program they have been accepted to. Here follows an alphabetical list of the current fellows from all the CHS fellowships programs, supported administratively and logistically by CHS Greece.
