Our speaker is Ron Doel from Florida State University. The title of his talk is "Science in Black: Scientists, Scientific Practice, and Scientific Intelligence in the Cold War”. Here is a brief description of the topic: ‘The hallmark of intelligence is secrecy and control of information. The hallmark of science is openness and communication. How did scientific intelligence take root—and flourish—during the Cold War?’.

The talk will be followed by drinks and dinner.

We look forward to seeing you.
