Biography

I am a historian of science, medicine and humanities. Currently I am a PhD candidate at the Department of History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge, working on the Wellcome-funded research project "The Doctrine of Signatures in Early Modern Medical Practice (221115/Z/20/Z)". I specialise in the history of medicine, natural history and occult sciences in early modern Europe, and the history of ideas in the long nineteenth century, particularly in the circle of art historian Aby Warburg (1866–1929). Before coming to Cambridge, I have worked as a new media art curator in Beijing.

As a historian, I am very interested in the historical aspect of Research Data Management from early modern botanical taxonomy, nineteenth-century index cards to the digital age. I seek to explore how techniques of data management shaped our perspectives, methodologies, and construction of scientific objects in the long run, and how our RDM practice in humanities today could benefit from past theories and experiences. I am the founder of the History of Science Library, a public Zotero library for the history of science and a resource hub for historical and contemporary data management in humanities. Currently I'm running RDM training sessions both in my department and virtually based at the History of Science Library, please feel free to get in touch.
