What an incredible final day at the #QHSummerSchool2024! 🙌 We were honored to hear from @hild_de @EMHLeuven @IISG_Amsterdam on "Analysing and Interpreting Data in Context", as well as a 3-part lecture series from Tuan-Hwee Sng @NUSingapore covering "Theory and #EconomicHistory", "Comparative Institutional Analysis", and "Interdisciplinary Research".

A huge thank you to both speakers for sharing their expertise and insights on how to approach #interdisciplinary research in quantitative history. Your perspectives will no doubt inspire and benefit all of us.

Like our speakers said at the closing dinner, it is just the beginning of a long journey. 🎉Congratulations to all the students who completed this year’s program! Can't wait for what's next!

This was not an average summer school but rather an intensive series of discussions about historical research among a community of historians & social scientists. The students were impressive in all sorts of ways. Looking fwd to the next 10 years of this @QuantHistoryHKU program.

At the HKU Summer School in Quantitative History I'll talk about "data" as concept & method, arguing that the contextualization of data & of any operations on data remains a key concern-even more so as GPTs make the encoding of & operations on data more accessible /2

[Hilde De Weerdt @hild_de]

8 @infralives workshop & conference presentations coming up 7/8-15. 4 by Lee Sunkyu & Sander Molenaar on contextual annotation of images & texts & on how this fits in research on the history of bridge repair & the representation of border fortifications in cartography /1
