Abstract:<br>
</b>Film technologies have been an important part of experimental
cytology in the twentieth century. This talk will address the
history of microcinematography and its role in biological science.
This history will also be used to propose new approaches to a broader
history of biotechnology, a nascent subfield of the history of science
and technology which to date lacks a coherent historiography.<br><br>
