Ten years ago, David Livingstone, started his well-known Putting Science in its Place by a brainstorming of questions that were supposed to consolidate a new perspective in the study of science. The activity takes place, in many different places, but does it matter where? Can the location of the scientific activity have any influence in how science develops? And even more important, can this affect the content of the work? For Livingstone, the answer to these questions was, and still is, affirmative and his book claims that fact.
\nLivingstone was not the first author wondering about those questions, and so, we can also find them framed in a more or less clearly way in the works of Hannaway, Shapin and other authors who, in the 1980s, contributed to explain the history of the laboratories. But, as Charles Withers reminded us in his lecture in the last meeting of the SCHCT, during the last ten years the Geography of the Scientific Knowledge has become a rich and dynamic study field that includes a whole bunch of publications and research groups in many countries. In the catalan context the initiatives of our forerunners in the geographies of knowledge have also started to come about This allows its consolidation as a field of high interest achieving both the cohesion of our local community and its international visibility.
\nThis thematic SEMINAR PROGRAMME that we are introducing for the 2013-2014 academic year will connect science and sites, avoiding the focus on only the research programs created by Livingstone, Withers, etc. Approaching this topic from different sites related to health, education, research, exhibitions, art and creation, this seminar series aims to establish questions and to highlight different aspects: how physical places condition scientific knowledge production (laboratories, anatomical theatres, museums, etc\u2026?, the coexistence of science and the city; how scientific knowledge changes by its circulation and appropriation or how a region or nation are built through science and to think about the existence of different science styles; how to re-think political and national borders as a tool of historical studies\u2026And many more questions that we hope that you will find as revealing as ourselves and will encourage you to think and discuss them during the sessions that we offer you in these seminars.
