（一）讲座时间：2025年10月20日 15:00—17:00地点：清华大学人文楼B206主题：Multispecies History as Method: Possibilities and Challenges主讲人：Fa-ti Fan (Binghamton University, State University of New York)This talk discusses the possibilities and challenges of studying history – particularly Chinese history and history of science – through the perspective and method of multispecies history. I suggest that multispecies history provides a valuable approach to studying Chinese history, one that enriches our understanding of the cultural, socioeconomic, and environmental history of China. However, the approach also presents particular challenges for historical interpretation and narration. I will consider these challenges and suggest ways to negotiate them.（二）座谈时间：2025年10月22日 15:30—17:00地点：清华大学人文楼B206主题：The Recent Developments in the History of Science主讲人：Fa-ti Fan (Binghamton University, State University of New York)主讲人简介Fa-ti Fan is a historian of science and of modern China.
