Should materials existing outside the Institute’s immediate space be incorporated into its archival collection? A challenge of precisely this nature arose in 2024, when the Shelby White and Leon Levy Archives Center acquired documents received and collected by Friedrich Adolf Paneth (1887–1958), an Austrian-born chemist with no direct IAS affiliation but who had close contact with IAS scholars.

Explore the legacy of civil rights activist and educator Bob Moses from the perspective of Distinguished Visiting Professor Karen Uhlenbeck; read about the current struggle of Ukrainians and its ties to the past; and take a tour of the Institute’s intellectual heritage with IAS Director and Leon Levy Professor David Nirenberg.
