OHST promotes research and intellectual exchange in the history of science and technology. In cooperation with other research units and teaching departments at Berkeley, especially the Department of History, which offers an MA/PhD in the history of science, the Office provides research facilities and administrative assistance to scholars and students, as well as organizing international exchanges, conferences, and a public colloquium series co-sponsored by the UC San Francisco graduate program in the History of Health Sciences. We publish Historical studies in the physical and biological sciences, a leading journal in the field, and other publications, including the Berkeley papers monograph series. We also welcome postdoctoral fellows and other visiting scholars from all over the world.
