The Early History of Microscopes

In this webinar, the speaker will focus on the intersection between art and science with an emphasis on the early history of microscopes. History makers and their early optical designs look like more works of art to us than instruments. Many different styles of microscopes reflected the apprenticeships and regions where they were made. Dr. Glavy will present the historical perspective of early microscope development and then focus on his collection of 18th-century French microscopes. This webinar is meant to display how the art within the simplest of designs may inspire scientists and further apprentice the history that has led to advances in imaging.
