Maria Rentetzi is Professor and chair of Science, Technology and Gender studies at the Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg and a visiting scholar at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin. She works at the intersection of science and technology studies, nuclear diplomacy, and gender. Her research focuses on two intertwined areas of inquiry: the investigation of the politically and historically situated character of technoscience and the critical examination of gender as a major analytic category in technoscientific endeavors. She is an ERC Con grantee and an affiliate of the Max Planck Institute for History of Science, previously a guest professor at the TU Berlin, Silverman Professor at Tel Aviv University in Israel, and professor at the National Technical University of Athens. Through her ERC project she currently leads the development of what she calls “The Diplomatic Studies of Science.” Rentetzi is also corresponding member of the International Academy of History of Science, member of Academia-Net (nominated by Austrian Science Fund as an excellent female researcher), council member of the IUHPST/DHST, and founding member and treasurer of the Association of ERC Grantees.
