UPDATE: This production has been cancelled due to recent advances with the COVID-19 Outbreak. Please see “Important Update About Ada and the Engine” for more information.

Join us Friday, April 10 for a post-show conversation with Historian of Science, Alex Csiszar.

Join Harvard Associate Professor Dr. Alex Csiszar as he responds to Ada and the Engine. Listen to Dr. Csiszar discuss the production through his unique lens of historical science and scientific publishing!

Alex Csiszar teaches and researches the history of scientific communication and public science in nineteenth-century Europe. He writes about how scientists and others come to learn about and trust claims about the natural world. He has written a book about the history of scientific journals which tells the story of how that genre came to dominate scientific communication by the end of the nineteenth century, why that same genre has begun to fall apart, and what the future of scientific communication might look like. He is currently finishing a new book about the long history of search engines in science.
