The 29th Baltic Conference on the History of Science took place in the old Central Campus of
Vilnius University (Universiteto St. 3), in the heart of Vilnius Old Town.



The conference is dedicated to the 440th anniversary of the founding of Vilnius University in 1579, and its main theme
will be Science and the University. In addition to the history of science and medicine at Vilnius University, we invite
abstracts on the organization of science, medicine and technology at the new or restructured universities which emerged
in the three Baltic countries and Finland during the interwar period (1918-1940): the University of Helsinki, the
University of Tartu (Estonia), the University of Latvia and the Vytautas Magnus University (Kaunas, Lithuania).
Other abstracts dealing with the history, philosophy and sociology of science, medicine and technology will be considered.
