Renaissance Science & Medicine aims to centralize online resources, news and information related to the history of scientific knowledge and practice in the long Renaissance (ca. 14th–17th centuries).
To this end, it aggregates the most recent posts from the academic blogosphere and Open Access networks, e.g., OpenEdition and Humanities Commons.
As a collaborative platform, it allows the members of the Renaissance Science and Medicine group on HCommons to share their own announcements about research activities and other relevant events.
