In a recent news release, the Wilson Center named Elliott School faculty, Associate Professor Eric Schluessel and Assistant Professor Jeffrey Ding, to the Center's 2025-2026 Wilson China Fellowship class. The prestigious China-focused non-residential fellowship allows scholars and practitioners working on a diverse range of policy-relevant issue areas vital to understanding the rise of China and its implications for the United States and the world. 

During his fellowship year, Dr. Ding will research his project, "You Get the Best of Both Worlds? Benchmarking China’s Civil-Military Integration Efforts” and Dr. Schluessel will examine: "Violence and Resilience: Xinjiang at the Grassroots.” Congratulations Professors!
