ISHPSSB David L. Hull Prize
Reminder of the Deadline for Nominations and
Request for Financial Support
This is a reminder about the approaching deadline for nominations
for the first David L. Hull Prize for History, Philosophy, and Social
Studies of Biology, honoring extraordinary scholarship and service
promoting connections among the communities represented by our
Society. The Prize commemorates the life of David Hull, who
exemplified both a high standard of interdisciplinary scholarship and
exemplary service that helped to build bridges among our disciplines;
it is scheduled to be awarded at the 2011 meeting of ISHPSSB in Salt
Lake City. The David L. Hull Prize consists of a Medal
recognizing the recipient's contributions to scholarship and
service.
A complete nomination package consists of two letters of
nomination, each signed by at least one member of ISHPPSSB (thus there
must be at least two nominators) and a current curriculum vitae of the
candidate. The deadline for nominations is now very near: it
is
1 January, 2011. Nominations should be sent to the
Chair of the David L. Hull Prize Committee, preferably by email to

The Society also requests contributions in honor of David Hull
and in support of this prize. We will obtain a long-term supply
of a very attractive medal and hope to build a small fund to be used
appropriately. Contributions can be made by scrolling to the
bottom of the Society's membership page,
http://www.ishpssb.org/membership.html . There you will
find donation buttons for student travel and the David L. Hull Prize,
and buttons to obtain reduced-rate subscriptions to some of the major
journals in some of our disciplines. (You can also use this page
to become a member of the Society, extend your membership, and/or
revise your address information.)
