The next British Society for the History of Science (BSHS) postgraduate
conference will be hosted by the Department of Philosophy in
collaboration with the Centre for the History of Medicine and Disease at
Durham University, from Thursday 4th to Saturday 6th January 2007. The
annual BSHS postgraduate conference is an opportunity for postgraduates,
from the UK and abroad, researching within the history of science,
technology and medicine to present their research.
We welcome papers from all postgraduates working in History of Science,
Technology and Medicine, and also those working in other disciplines
whose research touches on any area of HSTM studies. We would like to
offer as many postgraduates as possible the chance to present their
papers, hence time for presentations will be restricted to no more than
twenty minutes. Please send a brief abstract (not more than 350 words)
to the organisers (see address as below), deadline 8th November 2006.
The abstract should give a title and an outline of your paper, including
methodology, sources and key questions of your research project. Please
include your contact details and your institutional affiliation.
If you want to submit an abstract (an electronic copy is preferred), or
have any further questions please do get in touch with a member of the
organisation committee (Vicky Blake, Beth Hannon and Sebastian Pranghofer).
