The Conversationalist Podcast - Episode 2: 'Crowdsourcing Historical Research'

Listen to the podcast on our soundcloud, here.

You're invited to join our science-themed cocktail party, where experts on the history of science tell us stories, fun facts, and random anecdotes about the development of scientific knowledge from the 19th century to today!

In this episode, we talk about how historians can use crowdsourcing technology to support their research by looking at the ScienceGossip.org, a research project hosted on the Zooniverse platform that uses citizen science to understand the history of citizen science.

Interviews with: Dr Geoffrey Belknap (University of Leicester), Tom Nicholson (Oxford Artisan Distillery), Cory Mason (Oxford Artisan Distillery)
