Noemi Di Tommaso is an early modern historian of science. Her research topics concern scientific correspondence in Latin (16th-17th century), the exchange of objects by means of letters, the creation of scientific networks, and the transition from Latin to Italian as a scientific language. Furthermore, some others of the central themes of her research were the presence of women in the making of science and the reception of ancient atomism during the years of post-Tridentine and inquisitorial pressures (16th-17th centuries). She was assistant managing editor for ”Nuncius. Journal for Visual and Material History of Science” and for ”Aldrovandiana. Historical Studies in Natural History”.
