Academic Staff

Leiden academics research the world around us and pass on their knowledge to future generations. Each with his or her individual expertise and personal fascination for a particular discipline, they are the public face of the University.

Leiden academics give shape to our research and teaching. They are given the scope and resources to excel, and their high calibre is affirmed time and again, making them a role model for our students and young academics.

Our researchers have been awarded many academic grants, prizes (such as the Spinoza and Stevin Prizes) and international awards such as honorary doctorates.
