<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>The Program in HASTS trains scholars to
study science and technology as activities situated in social and
cultural contexts. Students do their research in a wide variety
of areas such as history of medicine, anthropology of sustainability,
scientific visualization, environmental history, and anthropology of
life sciences. Some recent dissertations have focused
on the history of U.S. food labeling policies, social study of
outer space, artifacts in technology, and the training and identity of
pilots in Japan and the US.</blockquote>

<blockquote type="cite" cite>The visit day gives prospective students
a chance to get a better understanding of what our program offers in
terms of research and resources, and to help them decide if our
program may be a good fit for them. The registration form (due
Nov. 9) and agenda are now posted at <a
href="http://web.mit.edu/hasts/admissions/visit.html"
