Discussion Networks Reviews Job Guide Announcements

H-Sci-Med-Tech is a discussion list intended for the growing number of scholars who study science, medicine and technology across a wide variety of periods and regions of the world. While rooted in history, ours is truly an interdisciplinary field, bringing together complementary theories and methodologies from across the humanities and the social sciences.

From this web site, visitors may learn about the list and its policies, read through past and current messages, see book reviews commissioned by our list, check for open jobs in our field, search for recent announcements in our field (by subfield, below), or search the message logs for particular keywords.

You can also subscribe to an RSS feed of any H-Net list, including ours. Remember, please follow correct electronic citation format if you use a reference from any H-Net list.

If you choose to subscribe to the list, please read through the list help and then you may set personal options for receiving messages, and of course you may post messages to the list as well (by sending email to H-SCI-MED-TECH@h-net.msu.edu).

We hope you will also find useful our short list of weblinks to outside resources in the field, recent messages from general H-Net lists and recent messages from related H-Net lists (all below). Please note that we only link to these external sites and do not maintain them ourselves.

Finally, please contact the list editors with any questions about H-Sci-Med-Tech. Cheers!
