Chairs

Contributions from donors also make it possible to fund professors by special appointment. These temporary chairs give talented scientists the opportunity to further build on their field of knowledge and thus also support the development of innovative areas of science.

A special chair is by definition temporary. The best evidence that such a chair meets a particular need is if it is converted to a full professorship. This gives the chair a structural place within Leiden University. Examples of such chairs are Anthropology of Digital Diversity (Professor dr.
