Sharing a great passion for seventeenth-century microscopes, microscopy and microscopists, and their representations of the microworld, this international team connects skills and knowledge from various disciplines. And from different institutional and educational backgrounds. We humble ourselves in the face of the pioneering work our protagonists did in the 17th century – they had no clue as to where to look and how to interpret what they saw – which we can only try to reconstruct and understand, anno 2023.
We are honoured to cooperate with experts on specific topics from all over the world, including the nine distinguished members of our Advisory Board.
