How to promote dance research? In order to avoid misapplying our limited resources, we want to incorporate as much expertise as possible into our association. For this, our scientific advisory board is intended as a major instrument: a body of internationally acknowledged dance resarchers that advises the association on its various projects.Even though our association has not officially been launched, we already have confirmations by Anne Daye from Great Britain, Irene Brandenburg from Salzburg and Marie-Thérèse Mourey from Paris. In the weeks to come, we are hoping to secure other distinguished scientists and dancers.
