    STS-Hub 2025

    Diffracting the Critical

    11-14 March 2025
    Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin

    STS Hub is a conference series that brings together German organisations, labs and research groups that are more or less closely related to STS. The STS Hub 2025 is organised by STS scholars from different institutions of the HU, supported by six German professional associations dedicated to STS, and assisted by a scientific advisory board.

    The theme of the Hub 2025, 'Diffracting the Critical', calls for a collective exploration of how the critical is entangled in the complex interplay of ecologies, infrastructures, scales, temporalities, collaborations and solidarities that shape not only the present but also our practice as STS scholars.

    What is STS-HUB?

    Science & Technology Studies (STS) has become a recognised, delineated academic field in the international research landscape. In Germany, however, STS is rather dispersed among existing academic disciplines, research institutes, and loosely connected academic networks and associations. To strengthen the interconnectedness of STS in Germany, STS-hub.de is organised: a conference series that brings together German organisations, labs, and research groups that are more or less closely related to STS.
