Notes

1 Due to the semicentennial of the publication of Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, perhaps a fine bridge between East Asian STS and Taiwan's local STS/HPS interests has been built this year. In Taiwan, we have cooperated with the Taiwanese Journal for Studies of Science, Technology and Medicine in holding the workshop “Kuhn's Structure 50: From HPS to STS,” but at the same time, EASTS has also been coordinating internationally on a panel discussion titled “Structure's 50 and East Asian STS,” as I note in the next paragraph.
