This research seminar starts from the premise that the production and circulation of scientific knowledge is conducted through media technologies: parchment and paper, books and journals, paper archives and electronic datasets. Likewise knowledge of the body in health and illness is mediated through material objects, from the uroscopy flask to the stethoscope to the PET scan. Students will explore the theory and method of media history in developing their own research projects in the history of science, technology, and medicine.
