Duke Scholars Using Internal Seed Grants to Build Foundation for Collaborative Research

We invited Duke leaders to tell us about the books and shows that have captured their imagination after a busy academic year.

More than 100 Duke faculty — from Justus Adamson to Junjie Zhang — were promoted to the professor rank in 2025 or hired at the rank of full professor since last year’s list. Their schools include Divinity, Fuqua, Law, Medicine, Nicholas, Nursi...

This achievement is the combination of a rigorous and thorough review by faculty peers inside and outside Duke and by the academic leaders at the department/division, school and campus levels.
