Call for Marjorie Grene Prize Submissions
ISHPSSB seeks submissions for the 2009 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 (Guelph or Exeter) 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 an award of $500.
Submissions should be in the form of a paper prepared for
submission to a professional journal, with an indication of the
journal in question and whether the paper is already in review.
Submissions can be in the form of papers already accepted for
publication. Electronic submissions, in Microsoft Word or PDF
format, are preferred and must be emailed no later than March 1, 2009.
Hardcopy submissions must include three complete copies of the paper
and be mailed no later than March 1, 2009. The winning entry
will be announced by May 1, 2009.
Please submit papers to Tara Abraham,
