In recent years, the interdisciplinary field of science and technology studies (STS) has been undergoing what some have called a “global turn” through greater attention to knowledge production, scientific practices, and therapeutics outside of North America and Western Europe. Regional and transnational academic networks have been established to support nascent STS communities around the world. As junior scholars, many of us are interested in exploring transnational network-building, collaborative research, and decolonial praxis in STS. To facilitate dialogue on the intellectual and political stakes of this “global turn” and how we might become involved, STS Futures Initiative will be hosting a two-part series on Global STS. The first workshop, “Global STS I: Transnational Network Building - Asia, Oceania, and Beyond,” featured STS leaders who have pioneered new academic networks in Australia, Asia, and globally. The second workshop, “Global STS II: Decolonial Praxis in STS,” will continue the conversation, featuring STS leaders who are pioneering new publishing opportunities in STS, expanding the Euro-American “canon” in STS, and building STS communities in Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East. Our panelists include Dr. Kim TallBear (University of Alberta, Canada), Dr. Leandro Rodriguez Medina (Universidad de las Americas Puebla, Mexico), Dr. Duygu Kaşdoğan (İzmir Katip Çelebi University, Turkey), Angela Okune (University of California, Irvine), Dr. Jessica Kolopenuk (University of Alberta, Canada) Dr. Wambui Wamunyu (Daystar University, Kenya) and Dr. Richard Rottenburg (University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb1d36fbf9d6f6e50d75760/1622660539513-0EM5J66YB3T60D9PLC92/Cal+STS+Flyer+V.+2.png Upcoming Events - Cal STS Retreat Friday and Saturday, June 25-26, 2021 After a short hiatus, the Cal STS Retreat is back for summer 2021, and the STS Futures Initiative is thrilled to be hosting this year! Since this year's workshops and events will be held entirely over Zoom, registration (though required) is free and open to all from both within and beyond the UC system. You can read more about the weekend's events and workshops on our website and register here (a brief description of each event or workshop can also be found at the top of the registration form). Consider signing up for "2 slides 2 minutes", the interdisciplinary feedback activity (which we're VERY excited about, however vague it may sound on paper), and our mentorship exercise! We hope to see you there! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb1d36fbf9d6f6e50d75760/1620884128489-531GYKUR9IZDUP4M68Y7/Global+STS+I.png Upcoming Events - Global STS I: Transnational Network Building in Asia, Oceania and Beyond Co-moderated by Dr. Kathleen Cruz Gutierrez and Dr. Jaimie Morse May 20th, 2021 5:30pm PDT Zoom Link Meeting ID: 975 0574 7092 Passcode: 436821 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb1d36fbf9d6f6e50d75760/1620888094736-0VWIB1SNM6J0J6TQ8EHJ/unnamed.png Upcoming Events - Art of the Op-Ed: How to Reach Audiences Beyond the Academy April 8th, 2021 4 – 6pm PDT Co-moderated by Lois Rosson (UC Berkeley) and Patrick McCray (UCSB) The process of cultivating academic scholarship can often feel siloed within the narrow confines of the ivory tower. Join the STS Futures Initiative on April 8th to hear more about how you might retool your academic work into writing palatable for audiences beyond the academy. What does the timeline for publication in online magazines and periodicals look like? What are the features of a strong pitch? Who should you reach out to, and according to what guidelines? This panel aims to demystify the process of appearing in popular print for graduate students and early career scholars https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb1d36fbf9d6f6e50d75760/1620883677557-RPE7W5RDYSHKM9UCO13P/unnamed+%281%29.png Upcoming Events - Bridging the "Two Cultures": Interdisciplinary, Public, and Digital Humanities Approaches to STS Facilitated by Rebecca Baker Thursday, March 4th, 2021 4-6pm (PST) Zoom link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/9717309292 Meeting ID: 971 730 9292 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb1d36fbf9d6f6e50d75760/1620884018623-DXV5NZTG8FKQ8JDJMBUB/Flyer+%281%29.png Upcoming Events - From Dissertation to Book: The Art of the Book Proposal Co-hosted by Morgan Ames, Hannah Zeavin, and the Center for Science, Technology, Medicine and Society Thursday, December 3, 2020 4-6 pm (PST) Zoom Link: https://zoom.us/j/95868464132 Meeting ID: 958 6846 4132 https://www.stsfuturesinitiative.org/aboutus daily 0.75 2022-03-28 https://www.stsfuturesinitiative.org/contact daily 0.75 2022-03-28 https://www.stsfuturesinitiative.org/home daily 1.0 2022-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fb1d36fbf9d6f6e50d75760/f4922088-e449-4d7d-980d-fddca4c34e33/Making+It+Work+Flyer+Final.png Home https://www.stsfuturesinitiative.org/shop daily 0.75 2025-05-09 https://www.stsfuturesinitiative.org/shop/p/conference-ticket-party-kpra7 monthly 0.5 2019-06-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c36c494ff5f00012dc9e9/1561491032689-BM01L5RPSSE49WEMRN5O/2005.37.4_PS2.jpg Shop - Conference Ticket + Party https://www.stsfuturesinitiative.org/shop/p/conference-ticket-jrden monthly 0.5 2019-06-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0c36c494ff5f00012dc9e9/1561491032689-BM01L5RPSSE49WEMRN5O/2005.37.4_PS2.jpg Shop - Conference Ticket
