BSHS Postgraduate Workshop, Leeds 2001
(With apologies for cross posting)
Message for all postgraduates in the history of science,
technology, and medicine and in related areas of sociology &
philosophy of science.
We are pleased to announce that the next British Society for the
History of Science postgraduate workshop will be hosted by the
Division of History and Philosophy of Science in the University
of Leeds on the 9th and 10th of January 2001 (for details of the
BSHS, see www.bshs.org.uk).
The meeting provides a friendly forum for any interested
postgraduates working in the history, philosophy or sociology of
science, technology or medicine in the UK and elsewhere.As at
previous meetings in London, Manchester and Cambridge, the
Leeds Workshop will be an excellent opportunity to give an
informal presentation, discuss projects and ongoing research,
and make contacts with other students.
The priority is for postgraduates from a wide range of universities and sub-
disciplines to meet informally and discuss their common interests.
The structure will be flexible, allowing for contributions ranging from
5-minute 'gobbets' for Masters-level or early PhD students, to full 20-minute
papers.
Included in the programme will be a reception with the staff of the HPS
Division (see our website at www.philosophy.leeds.ac.uk/html/hps.htm)
and a chance to sample the delights of the city of Leeds, 'Paris of the North'
(see www.leeds.gov.uk/tourinfo/tourinfo.htm).
There will be a small conference fee (around £5) for participants
and accommodation (for the nights of the 8th, 9th and 10th)
should not be more than £15 per night. If you are interested in
attending, please complete and return the enclosed form to us by
October 5th 2000. For further information feel free to contact

own - either by e-mail at the addresses given below.
