AcrossBorders was hosted from 12/2012 to 03/2015 by the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the core team of scientists were employees of the Academy. With the appointment of Julia Budka as Professor in Egyptian archaeology and art at the LMU Munich, the project moved to Munich in April 2015 (until 04/2018).

Thanks to financial support by the LMU, AcrossBorders has it’s own team assistant:

• Frank Berktold (a German trained in office managment)

The current scientific core team members are:

• Dr Julia Budka (Principal Investigator of AcrossBorders – an Austrian Egyptologist and Archaeologist working in Egypt and Sudan since 1997)
