About

The History of Science and Medicine Working Group (HSMWG) is a student-led group of doctoral researchers of the Department of History at the European University Institute, Florence.

The primary aim of this site is to advertise and document the activities of this working group. 

The HSMWG organises a variety of activities including lectures, workshops, internal sessions for discussing members' research and providing peer review, information sharing about relevant events, and museum visits throughout Florence.

This site also aims to keep former members of the HSMWG informed and to connect us with international communities of historians of science and medicine.
