Core Team
The Nara to Norwich core team, based at the Sainsbury Institute for the Study of Japanese Arts and Cultures, involves academics and researchers with specialisms from across the Silk Roads. This has been supplemented by the support of our contributors who have lent their expertise to the project and continue to support our work.
Contributors
The Nara to Norwich project would not have been possible without our contributors. We are very fortunate to have received help from experts around the globe and we hope that we can rely on their continued support as we extend the project into the future.
