Currently, Prof. Geary is co-Principal Investigator of HistoGenes, of a European Research Council Synergy Grant project integrating genetic, archaeological, and historical perspectives on Eastern Central Europe to understand the impact of migrations and mobility on the population of the Carpathian Basin from 400‒900 C.E.
