As part of a series of interviews with faculty, researchers and students who are participants in our Muslim World Manuscripts (MWM) project, Kaoukab Chebaro sat down with Sadegh Ansari, a graduate student in the MESSAS Department at Columbia University, and asked him a few questions about his dissertation and his use of the MWM collection. Sadegh was part of an initial cohort of students who initiated and advocated for the MWM project at Columbia.
