Op 8 februari hebben Patricia Crone en Michael Cook samen een eredoctoraat van de Universiteit Leiden ontvangen. Dit omdat ze met hun gezamenlijke pionierende en altijd vernieuwende visie op de geschiedenis van de vroege islam hun vakgebied blijvend hebben veranderd.

Zowel Patricia en Michael bedankten de (voormalig) rector magnificus Paul van der Heijden voor de enorme eer en wezen erop dat de studie van het Midden Oosten bij de Universiteit Leiden tot de beste ter wereld gerekend kan worden.
