In February, 2018, Dr Petra Dolata (History, UCalgary) and I attended an international symposium on "Transformations of Energy Systems in Historical Perspective” organized by the Max Planck Society in Berlin, Germany. We were afforded the opportunity to listen to fascinating talks by scholars from all over the world, and engage in discussions over how to create research agendae across the humanities/social sciences and natural sciences divide. We will continue to further our collaborations with our German partners with a joint workshop in June 2018 at the University of Calgary, in conjunction with the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science.
