Last December, the Whipple Museum was delighted to host Dr Artemis Yagou of the Deutsches Museum, Berlin, for a one month research fellowship. Artemis is studying the circulation of scientific instruments used around the turn of the nineteenth century in Greece, then a province of the Ottoman Empire – the period before the Greek War of Independence.

Artemis’ fellowship was made possible by the longstanding partnership between the Leibniz Gemeinschaft Research Museums and the University of Cambridge Museums, and was supported by the DAAD-University of Cambridge Research Hub for German Studies, the German Federal Foreign Office (FFO) and the Leibniz Research Alliance Value of the Past. Keep an eye out for her forthcoming publication in the Bulletin of the Scientific Instrument Society.
