Bio
I am head of the Research Center for Memory Studies and professor of contemporary history at Charles University and the Czech Academy of Sciences. My research focuses on the Holocaust and memory, the Greek Civil War, post-war reconstruction, and migration. I have received international scholarships, including Humboldt, USHMM, and Fulbright, and the Czech Learned Society award for young researchers. I co-founded the Herzl Center and the 4EU+ and CENTRAL memory research clusters, and serve on the Slow Memory COST Action management team and several editorial boards.
