Call for papers for ISHPSSB 2011 at the University of Utah
The International Society for the History, Philosophy, and Social
Studies of Biology (ISHPSSB) welcomes submission of paper and poster
proposals for the biennial meeting to be held in Salt Lake City,
Utah, USA, July 10-15, 2011. ISHPSSB brings together scholars from
diverse disciplinary backgrounds to discuss historical, conceptual,
epistemological, political, institutional, and ethical issues of the
life sciences in an open and informal setting. At the Salt Lake City
meeting, we plan to continue our tradition of an inclusive and
experimental approach.
Scholars are welcome to submit one proposal for a poster as well as one
proposal for an individual paper or a paper within an organized session.
We are excited to announce a poster session that will be connected to
a reception and vibrant discussion session with distinguished
scholars from across the disciplines represented by ISHPSSB
membership. Although less common in meetings of historians and
philosophers, poster sessions are a standard venue for biologists,
social scientists, and educators. Of special note, a poster session
offers the possibility of open-ended time to engage in dialogue with
others about one's work.
Planned sessions will be scheduled into a conventional 90-minute
forum, allowing up to four speakers (or three speakers and a
commentator) to present their work. A session organizer can submit a
proposal for the session.
Those scholars planning to submit an individual paper - not part of a
planned session - are encouraged to post ideas for sessions and
discussion panels on the ISHPSSB discussion board
(<http://ishpssb.onefireplace.com/>http://ishpssb.onefireplace.com/)
in advance of submission. Posting ideas here provides a good way to
find others who are interested in presenting on similar topics and
organize meaningful and interdisciplinary sessions together.
Scholars are invited to submit poster, session, and paper proposals
by following the links on the ISHPSSB website
(<http://www.ishpssb.org/>http://www.ishpssb.org/).
The deadline for submissions is February 28, 2011.
Additional information about proposal submission is available online,
or by contacting the program co-chairs at
