The chapter, 'Exhibiting the nation: framing post-Empire British identity at the Venice Art Biennale', explores the ways in which British national identity has been presented and interpreted through exhibitions at the Venice Art Biennale in the post-Empire era.

The contribution appears in the edited volume , edited by Panos Kompatsiaris.

This publication represents an important contribution to scholarship on contemporary art, exhibition histories, and national identity. We congratulate Claudia on this achievement and are delighted to celebrate the publication of this new work.

Congratulations to Dr Oluwatosin Orababa who was invited to give a talk on "Interdisciplinary approach to developing new treatments for antimicrobial resistant infections" at the 神马福利影片 Interdisciplinary Research Spotlight event.

Dr Farjana Kabir Early Career Fellow (IAS)

Good luck to one of our Early Career Fellows who will represent her work on decolonial performance practices at an upcoming international conference hosted by the University of Toronto on 27–28 May.

Dr Kabir will contribute to the event as both a facilitator and performer, presenting a solo piece titled The Kitchen Window Diaries. Supported by Early Career Researcher (ECR) funding, her participation marks a significant step in the development of her ongoing research.

The IAS is delighted to announce that the following projects are being funded by Interdisciplinary Research Development Awards, Round Three:

Dr Marta Ajmar (SCAPVC, History of Art) and Dr Carla Washbourne (CIM): 'Regenerative Design and Craft Lab: Co-Creating a Space for Regenerative Research at Warwick'

Dr Kirsty Hassall (Statistics): 'Creating the interdisciplinary foundations of chain event graphs in ecological frameworks'

Interdisciplinary IAS journal Exchanges is soliciting expressions of interest related to the upcoming special issue A Woman's Labour.

A new scholarly book examining the socialization of school leaders across sub-Saharan Africa is set for publication in early 2026. Co-authored by Dr Pontso Moorosi and her collaborator, the volume, Socialization of School Leaders in Sub-Saharan Africa: Reimagining the Landscape, has recently completed the review process and is now moving into production.

The book will be published by Bloomsbury, with an anticipated release window of January–February 2026. The publication represents the culmination of several years of research and collaboration, offering fresh insights into leadership development and professional socialization within educational contexts across the region.

The authors acknowledged the significant role played by institutional support in bringing the project to completion. In particular, the Institute of Advanced Studies (IAS) will be formally recognised in the book鈥檚 acknowledgements. The authors expressed their gratitude, noting that the work may not have been completed without the institute鈥檚 assistance.

Plans are also underway for a formal launch event in 2026. Potential venues include the 神马福利影片 and the BELMAS conference, subject to availability. The authors hope these events will provide an opportunity to celebrate the publication and engage with scholars, practitioners, and supporters of the project.

The forthcoming release is expected to contribute meaningfully to ongoing conversations about educational leadership, equity, and system transformation across sub-Saharan Africa, while also strengthening international dialogue in the field of educational research.
