Society for the History of Alchemy and Chemistry Awards Scheme

The Society for the History of Alchemy and Chemistry invites applications for its award scheme for 2013. Two types of award are available: support for research into the history of chemistry or history of alchemy by New Scholars and support for Subject Development of either history of chemistry or history of alchemy.

In addition, post-graduate students only may apply for the costs of travel to conferences and accommodation, but only in order to give a paper. The scheme will not pay conference registration fees.

Please Note that awards do not have to be held in the UK.

Only members of the Society, both those in the UK and those overseas, may apply.

Members must be in good standing at the time of making an application, and, if successful, throughout the period of an award. For more information, and an application form, please contact the Hon Secretary to the Society, Dr A.M. Roos at anna.roos@history.ox.ac.uk
