The American Association for the History of Nursing (AAHN) invites submissions for a virtual conference on space, place, and patients from senior undergraduate students, graduate students, and early career researchers (defined as up to 5 years post-PhD). Submissions that consider nurses or the role of the nursing profession in these issues are welcomed. However, presentations can consider any aspect of healthcare history within any geographic or temporal frame. You do not need to be an AAHN member to submit an abstract, but accepted presenters must be (or become) members to present at the conference. We offer a special membership discount for students: two students from the same institution can become members for $100 USD.

Please upload your 250-word abstract  AAHN Graduate Student & Ear...

The Centre for Ethics, Politics and Society (CEPS) invites submissions for PANEL 6: "SCIENTIFIC AUTHORITY AND DEMOCRATIC LEGITIMACY: PHILOSOPHICAL REFLECTIONS ON THE MORAL AND POLITICAL ROLE OF SCIENCE." at the 16th Braga Meetings on Ethics and Political Philosophy, hosted by the University of Minho in Braga (Portugal), on June 29–30 and July 1, 2026.

Today we have more recipes available to us than ever before, via websites, social media, print publications, and personal recommendations. This abundance can pose a challenge: how best to collect, organize, and store our recipes? Selecting and preserving recipes from a wide variety of sources, however, is not new. Individuals have used manuscript cookbooks, recipe boxes, scrapbooks, binders, oral traditions, and computers to do this, each method with their own unique set of advantages and disadvantages. Scholars of medieval and early modern recipes have parsed the differences between personal, institutional, and printed collections. But more modern personal collections have often garnered less notice, care, and attention, with scholars gravitating towards printed cookbooks and away from the index cards, scribbled notes, and newspaper clippings which so often constitute a modern personal collection. Yet they are compelling historical artifacts that can provide information about people, ...
