Much has changed over these 40 years, within Lancaster University, within STS, and within the higher education context more generally. Using \u2018temporalities\u2019 as our guiding construct, we take the 40<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">th<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> anniversary of CSS as an opportunity to explore pasts, presents and futures in\/of STS and the local, national and global shifts that shape our field and our work. Over the course of the year, we will be hosting three online seminars, followed by a concluding workshop. The seminars will each focus on a topic connected to one of our research themes: politics &amp; practices of knowledge production, data cultures &amp; quantification, and climate, energy &amp; environment. The final event will bring together discussions from across the preceding events, to consider the futures, pasts, and presents of STS at Lancaster and beyond.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Date: To be confirmed<\/li>\n<li>Format: Seminars will be online only.
