Chiara Ambrosio is an Associate Professor in History and Philosophy of Science at the Department of Science and Technology Studies, University College London. She has worked extensively on the visual cultures of science in relation to the visual arts, especially in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. She is an expert on American Pragmatism and particularly the philosophy of Charles S. Peirce. Her research integrates historical work on images and artefacts across art and science with a philosophical investigation on the nature and role of representations in scientific practice. William MacLehose is Lecturer in History and Philosophy of Science at UCLs department of Science and Technology Studies. He is a historian of medieval medicine and culture, with a focus on the relation between medicine and religion in the central middle ages. He is the author of A Tender Age: Cultural Anxieties over the Child in the Twelfth and Thirteenth Centuries (Columbia University Press, 2009) and is currently working on a study of sleep and its pathologies in medieval culture.
