Imre Festetics and the Sheep Breeders' Society of Moravia: Mendel's Forgotten "Research Network".

Contemporary science thrives on collaborative networks, but these can also be found elsewhere in the history of science in unexpected places. When Mendel turned his attention to inheritance in peas he was not an isolated monk, but rather the latest in a line of Moravian researchers and agriculturali...
