Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine

Description

The Centre is one of the most vibrant groups of historians devoted to the study of science, technology and medicine in the world, covering a long chronological range, and concerned with global as well as national histories. It is notable for being fully integrated into a history department both organisationally and intellectually.

The Centre's aim is to research and teach the histories of science, technology and medicine in ways that change understandings of their history, of history in general, and of the world today. The Centre's work has engaged directly with policy-makers and politicians, and just as importantly has affected national and international conversations about science, technology and medicine.
