Museums are packed with scientific objects, each with a rich biography of know-how, people and places. Come hear how David Pantalony, Joshua Nall and other international curators connect science and society by following the history of these objects as they move in and out of multiple contexts. Pantalony and Nall will also present a digital exhibit being launched as part of the conference Circulating Knowledge: 20 Years On.
David Pantalony is Curator, Science and Medicine, Ingenium – Canada’s Museums of Science and Innovation.
Joshua Nall is Director and Curator, Whipple Museum of the History of Science (Cambridge).
