Symposium 'Fusion Research Through the Eyes of Social Scientists and Humanities Scholars' -Reminder-
Dear colleagues, We are happy to invite you to our symposium: ‘Fusion Research Through the Eyes of Social Scientists and Humanities Scholars’ June 18th 2021, 1.30pm – 6.30pm CEST The symposium will explore perspectives from the social sciences and humanities on nuclear fusion research — ranging from the history of fusion technology to the epistemology of fusion engineering, and from the techno-economical side of fusion energy to the role of science diplomacy in fusion research. We welcome fusion researchers, social scientists and humanities scholars to join a conversation about what we can learn from each other’s fields and experiences, and reflect on key discussions within and about fusion research. The symposium is centred around nine sessions exploring different perspectives on fusion research. We are glad to announce the contributions of: - Prof. Dr. Niek Lopes Cardozo, TU/E | Fusion energy: Doable? Necessary? Affordable? Wanted? - Prof. Dr. Marco de Baar, DIFFER and TU/E | Does an independent body of engineering knowledge exist? How can we identify it? - Prof. Dr. Ir. Behnam Taebi, TU Delft | Nuclear ethics: its past, present and futures! - Dr. Mark Robinson, University of London | Science diplomacy perspective on nuclear fusion collaboration - Dr. Robert Bud, Science Museum London | Public technology and a historical perspective on nuclear fusion, with response from Michiel Bron MSc, Maastricht University. - Dr. Ad Maas, National Museum Boerhaave | Archiving and preservation of fusion research - Anouck Vrouwe MSc, DIFFER | Sharing memories: Glimpse into daily life at FOM Institute for Plasma Physics - Dr. Matteo Barbarino, IAEA | A brief history of history of nuclear fusion research — IAEA’s perspective - Prof. Dr. Gregor Schiemann, BU Wuppertal | Reflecting Particle Physics: On the relationship between the natural sciences and the humanities in the research unit ‘The Epistemology of the Large Hadron Collider’ The symposium is free to attend, but please register here to receive the Zoom link.
