Not only does the Cluster have an extensive fellowship programme that attracts numerous scholars and artists from around the world each year, but the Cluster’s researchers benefit from a strong international mobility programme. This makes it possible for EXC researchers at the pre-doctoral and post-doctoral levels to spend extended periods of time at renowned research institutions around the world. One such institution is the Centro Vittore Branca, an internationally renowned humanities research centre in Venice, Italy, that invites up to four EXC researchers annually. They spend a month at the Centro, working on their own research.
