Organized by Science History Bengaluru, CONTAGION shares a multiplicity of voices and perspectives – contemporary and historic, artistic and scientific, individual and collective – to support better understanding of what we are all living through.

Covid-19 has been with us for more than a year. The pandemic has upended our lives and illuminated longstanding challenges. In these unsettled times – much more so for some than for others – trustworthy evidence about what is happening changes rapidly. What we have retrieved from this, our very own moment, and in history, are works backed by research that put into relief the reciprocity, empathy, care and knowledge that can develop across disciplines and across experiences at different scales.

CONTAGION examines the transmission of emotions, behaviours, ideas and diseases, their fascinating and sometimes frightening spread and why all of this matters to the lives we hope to lead and the futures we can imagine.
