Queremos invitaros a participar en el XX Coloquio Internacional de la AEIHM que celebraremos el 21-22 y 23 de Octubre en Granada. Con el título “Tecnología, ciencia y naturaleza en la historia de las mujeres”, queremos realizar una reflexión colectiva sobre la relación entre la naturaleza y la feminidad. Además, el Coloquio quiere ofrecer un homenaje a Dona Haraway cuando se cumplen 35 años de la publicación de su célebre “Manifiesto para Cyborgs”.

It is open to students from worldwide. The generous scholarship covers the registration in three universities, the travel an...

Historians of science researching the history of the communication of science in public in a European context may be interested in contributing to a collection of essays which will be offered to UCL Press ( https://www.uclpress.co.uk/ ). Specifically, the editors of the collection, Cristiano Turbil (UCL), Ilaria Ampollini (Trento), Kristian H Nielsen (Aarhus) and Jean-Baptiste Gouyon (UCL), are looking for contributions examining practices of science communication in Europe from the 18 th  to the 20 th  Century.  With this volume, we intend to further contribute to the history of “popular science”, by looking specifically at the history of the communication of science in Europe from the eighteenth century onwards. For us, this means looking at the history of a practice, or, better to say, of practices, to try and understand how different actors have historically approached the task of making scientific knowledge public, for what purposes and for whom, but also h...

Conference Description This interdisciplinary conference seeks to explore the interplay between human, ethical, social, cultural, and political values, on the one hand, and science, technology, engineering, and medical research and practice, on the other hand. We invite presentations that seek not only to understand how values and science have and do influence one another, but also how they must and should influence one another (as well as types of influence that should be avoided). From this background, presentations that explore the relationship between science and the public and the relationship between science and social justice are also welcome. Finally, this conference ultimately seeks to promoting ethically responsible and socially beneficial scientific research and technological innovation, and critical reflection about the influence of science, technology, and medicine on our values, culture, practices, and worldviews. Proposals from any disciplinary or theoretical ...
