STS took shape as a field in the 1970s, and the history of technoscience was one of the main forces behind its growth. As both fields have diversified, their relationship has been questioned again and again. This workshop is both an experiment and an invitation: to think together about how, in twenty-first-century East Asia, the history of technoscience and STS can still inspire each other, and how exchange across fields can deepen what each cares about and asks.
This year marks fifty years of the Society for Social Studies of Science (4S), and Taiwan will host the 4S international conference in 2027. In Taiwan, the Institute of Sociology at Academia Sinica set up its Medicine, Technology and Society research group in 2025, and the Institute of Modern History set up its Technoscience, Medicine and Environment research group this year. Together these point to new chances for working and talking across disciplines, and the workshop warmly welcomes everyone interested in technology, medicine and the environment.
The programme is on the Institute of Modern History’s event page. Times and rooms may change, so please check there before you go.

活動宗旨
STS領域於1970年代蔚然成形，科技史是推動這個新興領域成長的關鍵力量。但隨著學科的多元發展，科技史與STS的關係開始受到反覆地質問。本次工作坊是一場實驗，也是一個邀請，期望參與者共同思考：在二十一世紀的東亞，科技史與STS還可以如何相互啟發，並透過跨域交流深化彼此的研究關懷與旨趣？
今年（2026）適逢 Society for Social Studies of Science（簡稱4S）成立五十週年。2027年臺灣亦將舉辦4S國際研討會。在臺灣，2025年中研院社會所成立「醫療、科技與社會」主題研究小組，今年近史所亦成立了「科技、醫療與環境」研究群，這些發展都預示了跨領域合作、對話的可能。本次工作坊誠摯歡迎學人們共聚一堂，交流討論科技、醫療與環境等相關議題。
