Rachel Blake<\/a> is working on the history of science and medicine, under Prof. Michael A. Osborne. \u00a0Her dissertation will be on French and German influences on medical education in Alsace in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.<\/p>\n

Barbara Canavan<\/a> is working on the history of science, disease, and environment, under the supervision of Prof. Anita Guerrini. \u00a0Her dissertation will be on the development of virology as a discipline, and on the networks of scientists who attempted to understand avian influenza.<\/p>\n

Laura Cray<\/a> is working on the history of biology and environment, under the supervision of Prof. Michael A. Osborne. Her dissertation will be on entomological research in the United States after the creation of land-grant colleges.<\/p>\n
