Creative Cities Workshop: Knowledge of Nature and Networks of Science

Oxford and Prague have played central roles in developing innovative pedagogical systems in astronomy, biology, chemistry, medicine, and physics. Indeed, they have been heavily involved in fostering international networks of scientific and medical knowledge since the medieval period. Thanks to a Fell-funded TORCH International Partnership ‘Creative Cities’, The Oxford Centre for the History of Science, Medicine, and Technology has a multi-year partnership with Charles University, Prague, drawing on historical, intellectual, and research links.

As part of this partnership, on Thursday 26 June Oxford is hosting a workshop showcasing work-in-progress from postgraduate students and early career researchers at the University of Oxford and Charles University (Prague). This workshop will focus on topics in the history of science, medicine, technology, and the environment, and the role of translations, networks, and place in shaping histories and practices of knowledge of the natural world. All are welcome; registration required for lunch.
