Palagia has edited a number of key handbooks on Greek sculpture which are widely used in teaching and research as well as contributing chapters to standard handbooks.[5][6][9] She is an expert on the sculptures of the Parthenon, publishing a book, The Pediments of the Parthenon (Brill, Leiden), in 1993 and lecturing widely on the topic.[10] Palagia served on the Committee for the Restoration of the Acropolis Monuments 2005–2009.[3][11][12]

Palagia has held a number of visiting fellowships at international institutions, including the Ailsa Mellon Bruce Visiting Senior Fellowship (Spring 1991) at the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC,[13] the Sylvan C.
