| description: | The grant applied for is planned for the reorganisation of investigation in the field of science history (including history of medicine) in Estonia by setting up a group of competent investigators who in their investigations will follow the scientific principles acknowledged in Estonia and all over the world. The aim is to analyse the development of Estonian science and Estonian community, reflecting their interrelation, and the development of science and society on the world scale. In fact, it means the compilation of Estonian science history. The suggested topic would represent the first step in an attempt to treat science history as a separate discipline, to guarantee its continuation through young investigators and to realise the aim of setting up an institution which would carry out science historical investigations in Estonia and take them to international level. |
