The CU Exploring Digital Humanities Series presents “It’s In the Air: Digital Histories of Medicine,” by E. Thomas Ewing from Virginia Tech, from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Feb. 12 in the Center for British and Irish Studies, Norlin Library (5th floor), CU-Boulder.

The presentation will explore the past, present and future of digital history through a discussion of projects on the history of medicine that advance the mission of a research university to promote original scholarship, mentor students, and engage with the public. These projects include a Digging into Data challenge collaboration to explore newspaper reporting of the Spanish Influenza and a citizen-science effort to document the history of tuberculosis in the United States.
