n bicentennial project is a constructive, intel- lectual, and public endeavor meant to celebrate frankenstein’s pervasive influence on contemporary culture and scientific research. with funding from the us national science foundation (nsf award no. 1516684), we are producing a citizen-curated, digital narrative experience of frankenstein and frankensteiniana in collaboration with dozens of museums and other partners. our goal is to understand the galvanizing power of frankenstein to stoke the public imagination and to harness that energy to ignite new conversations about creativity and responsibility among science and tech- nology researchers, students, and the public. we hope these conversations will inspire a deeper understanding of how to govern science and technol- ogy responsibly. we believe frankenstein is a book that can encourage us to be both thoughtful and hopeful: having these conversations can help all of us make better decisions about how to shape and understand scientific research and technical innovation …
