Comparative Indo-European Linguistics (CIEL) Seminars

The Comparative Indo-European Linguistics seminars highlight current research within Indo-European studies and adjacent disciplines.

Throughout the semester, we organize monthly meetings for staff, students, and anyone else interested. We invite scholars from the Netherlands and abroad to exchange ideas on a wide range of topics related to Indo-European studies. The talks usually take place on the last Friday of each month, from 15:30 to 16:30, in a collaborative and informal atmosphere.
