Additionally, she has pioneered research on the cultural reception of ancient Egypt , notably through the study of exlibris (bookplates) with Egyptian motifs, examining how Egyptomania has influenced European art, opera, and personal symbolism from the 19th century to the present. Her recent publications reflect a consistent scholarly output, with major works on architectural terminology, the reception of Egypt in European culture, and detailed analyses of specific artifacts. Her publications appear in leading journals such as Zeitschrift für ägyptische Sprache und Altertumskunde (ZÄS) , Studien zur altägyptischen Kultur (SAK) , and Göttinger Miszellen . The themes of her articles show a clear trajectory from technical Egyptological analysis of statues and inscriptions to broader cultural and historiographical studies of Egypt's modern legacy.

Burgin is a researcher at the University of Würzburg, where he serves as Head of the DFG Emmy Noether Junior Research Group 'The Hittite Annals: Origins, Purpose, and Afterlife' since 2021. He is affiliated with the Chair of Ancient Near Eastern Studies within the Institute of Classical Studies in the Faculty of Philosophy. Previously, he worked as a Research Assistant (leader) from 2017-2021 on the philological processing and analysis of the Hittite palace administration corpus. Born on October 9, 1984, Burgin earned his BA in South Asian Language and Civilization with a focus on Sanskrit from the University of Chicago (2002-2006), followed by an MA in Ancient Near Eastern Studies with a focus on Hittite studies (2008-2010). He completed his doctorate at the University of Chicago in 2016 with a dissertation titled 'Aspects of Religious Administration in the Hittite Late New Kingdom.' Burgin's research spans multiple dimensions of Hittite and Ancient Near Eastern studies, with particular expertise in Hittitology, the history of the Hittites, economic and administrative history, and Hieroglyphic Luwian. His work demonstrates a sophisticated understanding of the interplay between linguistic, historical, and archaeological evidence. He has made significant contributions to understanding Hittite festival texts, economic administration, textile production, and linguistic phenomena such as the 'Initial-A-Final' in Hieroglyphic Luwian. His research often bridges disciplines, connecting linguistic analysis with historical context and material culture. His recent publications reveal a trajectory of increasingly sophisticated analysis of Hittite textual corpora, with a growing emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches that incorporate linguistic, historical, and archaeological perspectives. Burgin's work on the Hittite palace-temple administrative corpus has challenged conventional understandings of royal administration, while his linguistic studies have illuminated previously obscure aspects of Anatolian languages. Röntgen Prize of the University of Würzburg (2022) Burgin has been involved in significant research projects including the Corpus of Hittite Festival Rituals (2016-17) and the DFG-funded project on the Hittite palace administration corpus (2017-21). As leader of his Emmy Noether Research Group, he directs a major investigation into the Hittite Annals, examining their origins, purpose, and historical legacy. His work has been supported by prestigious funding mechanisms including the DFG Emmy Noether Program, which targets exceptional early-career researchers. As head of his research group, Burgin leads a team investigating the complex textual tradition of the Hittite Annals, which document the military campaigns and political activities of Hittite kings. His research environment combines philological expertise with interdisciplinary approaches to understanding Bronze Age Anatolian civilization.

Prof. Dr. Martina Minas-Nerpel is Professor of Egyptology at the University of Trier since March 2018, where she leads research on Egyptian religion, cultural history of Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt, ruler ideology, and hieroglyphic temple texts. Her work bridges philological analysis with archaeological context, focusing particularly on intercultural dynamics during periods of political transition. Her educational background includes a Magister Artium in Egyptology and Classical Archaeology from University of Trier (1991), Master of Philosophy in Egyptology from University of Oxford (1993), and PhD from University of Trier (1998). She completed her habilitation at Trier in 2004, establishing her expertise in Ptolemaic royal ideology. Minas-Nerpel's research interests center on the complex interplay between Egyptian and Hellenistic/Roman cultural elements, particularly examining how Ptolemaic queens navigated dual identities, how temple architecture reflected political realities, and how religious practices evolved under foreign rule. Her work reveals how Egyptian institutions maintained continuity while adapting to new political frameworks. Analysis of her recent publications (2017-2025) shows consistent focus on Ptolemaic queenship, temple architecture under Roman rule, and cultural syncretism. Her work increasingly examines gender dimensions of power, religious innovation during political crises, and the material expression of ideological concepts through temple decoration and ritual practices.

These projects involve substantial collaborations with European institutions and receive funding from the FNRS-UNamur, CFEETK, Gerda Henkel Foundation, and EPSRC (UK). Her leadership in these projects has resulted in significant publications, including multi-volume studies of temple inscriptions and decorative programs that provide comprehensive analyses of religious and political expression in ancient Egyptian temples during periods of foreign rule.
