HSTS graduate student Alice Clifton has been selected to participate in the 2019 Summer Institute in the History of Science, Technology and Medicine at The Huntington Library in Pasadena, California, convened by Professor Janet Browne of Harvard University. The highly selective two-week institute on the theme of 'How Historians Explore Science, Technology and Medicine' has admitted and fully funded sixteen graduate students or early career professors. It aims to give participants insights into creative strategies for collections-based research while providing ample access to the archive's comprehensive holdings of rare books and manuscripts.
