CfP: British Society for the History of Mathematics 'Research in Progress' meeting for research students

The British Society for the History of Mathematics will be holding 'Research in Progress', its annual meeting for research students, at The Queen's College, Oxford, on Saturday 2nd March 2024. The meeting will be held in person, though a livestream may also be possible (to be confirmed). The day provides an opportunity for early-career scholars in the history of mathematics to showcase their current research, and will conclude this year with a keynote lecture by Dr Rebekah Higgitt (National Museums Scotland).

Talks will be 30 minutes each (including time for questions). Research students who are interested in offering a presentation are invited to send a proposed title and abstract to Christopher Hollings by 30th November 2023. The organisers will be in touch shortly thereafter with a decision.

Registration costs will be waived for speakers, but unfortunately, we are unable to provide travel or accommodation expenses. Eligible students who require funding might wish to apply for the ICHM Grant for international research-related activity: https://www.mathunion.org/ichm/grants-sponsorships/ichm-grants

The day is expected to begin around 10am and to conclude around 5pm. Further details of the conference will appear here as they become available: https://www.bshm.ac.uk/events/research-progress-4
