Mordechai Feingold (D.Phil., University of Oxford, 1980; M.A., 1976; B.A., Hebrew University of Jerusalem, 1972) is an intellectual and institutional historian of science, from the Renaissance to the eighteenth century, and has served as Kate Van Nuys Page Professor of the History of Science and the Humanities at Caltech since 2019. Previously he was Professor of Science and Technology Studies at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, Virginia.

His research focuses on how the rise of modern science has transformed Western culture from a humanistic, religious, and unified culture during the sixteenth century into a scientific, technological, secular, and fragmented one by the nineteenth century.
