The Consortium for History of Science, Technology and Medicine has a new working group: Beauty Studies in the Premodern World. Join our group and come along to the first meeting, @evelynwelch.bsky.social's seminar, 'Whose Hair is it Anyway? Beauty, Health and Shaven Heads in Early Modern Europe'.

I’m just home from an incredible trip to London, where I participated in a symposium at Tate to celebrate ten years of the Brooks International Fellowship. It was so enriching to engage with forward-thinking Brooks fellows from the world over on themes and issues relating to curatorship and museums.
