Simha Gross, a fellow at IIAS and part of the "Judæo-Persian and Persian Textual Landscapes: Towards an Intellectual History of Medieval Iranian Jewry" research group, just published a significant work titled "Babylonian Jews and Sasanian Imperialism in Late Antiquity" through Cambridge University Press.

Three IIAS former fellows collaborated to organize an international workshop titled "Displacement, Forced Migration and Reparation: Comparisons and Controversies" at the University of Sussex, UK. This event was co-hosted by the Jacob Robinson Institute for the History of Individual and Collective Rights at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the Weidenfeld Institute of Jewish Studies at the University of Sussex, and the IIAS.
