<br>Wed 7 Sep 2020 | 15:00 - 18:00
<br>------------------------------
<br>
<br>
<br>The new journal *Quantitative Science Studies* (QSS) has recently released
<br>a new special issue (see below) exploring the relation of QSS with
<br>neighboring fields, with contributions by renowned scholars working at the
<br>boundaries of QSS. This webinar will explore some of the issues raised in
<br>the special issue and will look ahead to the future of the field.
<br>
<br>
<br>We also thought that this would be an ideal occasion to offer a tribute to
<br>Loet Leydesdorff for his contributions to various fields of science studies
<br>over almost 50 years, from his initial work on Dutch*science shops* in the
<br>1970s to the *Triple Helix *dynamics, across a myriad of strangely
<br>beautiful scientometric blossoms. We warmly invite friends of STS,
<br>scientometrics and innovation studies and beyond to participate in this
<br>celebration!
