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 by 8th November 2006 (electronic copies preferred). Please remember to include your contact details and institutional affiliation.

Abstracts and queries should be directed to the organisational committee (Vicky Blake, Beth Hannon and Sebastian Pranghofer)
