The AHRC has awarded a £962,000 grant to the project ‘Making Visible: the Visual and Graphic Practices of the Early Royal Society’.

The project is led by Principal Investigator Dr Sachiko Kusukawa (Trinity College) alongside Co-Investigators Dr Felicity Henderson (Exeter University) and Dr Alexander Marr (History of Art).  Hosted at CRASSH, the project will explore the roles visual resources and practices played in the development and dissemination of scientific knowledge in the first fifty years of the Royal Society.  It will run for three years and employ two Post-Doctoral Research Associates. The Department would like to congratulate Dr Marr for having been awarded this grant alongside Dr Kusukawa and Dr Henderson.
