****************************************************************************
Dear ISHPSSB student members,
Below is the announcement for the Grene prize given to the best
student paper presented at an ISHPSSB meeting. Because there were very
few submissions this year, the committee has extended the deadline
until March 1st. I'd like to urge all of you who presented a paper at
the last ISHPSSB meeting to consider submitting it for
consideration.
If you have any questions, please ask.
Cheers,
Kelly
Marjorie Grene Prize
ISHPSSB seeks submissions for the 2003 Marjorie Grene Prize.
This prize
is intended to advance the careers of younger scholars, and will be
awarded
to the best manuscript based on a presentation at one of the two
previous
ISHPSSB meetings (Oaxaca or Quinnipiac) by someone who was, at the
time of presentation, a graduate student.
It is very appropriate for ISHPSSB to name this prize in Marjorie
Grene's honor. Not only does her work in the history and
philosophy
of biology exemplify the strong spirit of interdisciplinary work
fundamental to ISHPSSB, but she played a central role in bringing
together diverse scholars of biology even before the formation of
the Society. She has been a valued mentor to many members of
the
Society and a long-standing inspiration to all.
The award will consist of a certificate and up to $200 toward
expenses
incurred in attending the 2003 meeting of the Society. If the
manuscript
is not already under review by a journal, the prize committee will
promote the winning entry to one of the leading journals.
Submissions should be in the form of a paper prepared for submission
to a
professional journal, with an indication of the journal in question.
Hardcopy
submissions must include three complete copies of the paper and be
mailed
no later than March 1, 2003. Electronic copies, in
Microsoft Word or text
only format, must be emailed no later than February 8, 2003. The
winning
entry will be announced by April 15, 2003.
