Ph.D. candidate Andrew O’Donohue is chosen as a 2025 Harvard Horizons Scholar.
Andrew is one of eight appointees – who are studying topics from photochemistry, youth psychotherapies, human learning artificial intelligence, and more. The group forms the twelfth class of the Society of Horizons Scholars, a fellowship cohort that offers opportunities for long-lasting community, mentorship, and professional and academic growth.
The program has two goals: to amplify research going on across fields in Harvard Griffin GSAS and to hone the scholars’ skills in presenting their research to a broad audience. As a result, all scholars will present their research at Sanders Theater in a campus-wide symposium on April 8, 2025.
Andrew, who studies resistance to democratic erosion, political polarization, and the rule of law, with a focus on Turkey, Europe, and the Middle East, will deliver a talk titled “Law versus Democracy: Why Courts Defend or Undermine Democracy in Turkey, Israel, and Beyond.”
