Our Research
As the academic hub for Durham’s UNESCO World Heritage Site, we champion a framework for rigorous research, impact, and dissemination, in order to strengthen the global understanding and appreciation of one of Europe’s great Palatinates. Our research covers a comprehensive range of areas from Late Antiquity to the late eighteenth century, with a global range from the Silk Road to the Anglo-Saxon and Viking North.
Inventing Futures
How can the study of the past help us rise to the global challenges which threaten humanity today? Inventing Futures is a new, five-year programme of research at IMEMS which emphasizes the future-oriented consequences of our past-oriented study.
