BSHM Research in Progress
22 February 2025
The Queen’s College, Oxford
The British Society for the History of Mathematics will be holding ‘Research in Progress’, its annual meeting for research students, at The Queen’s College, Oxford, on Saturday 22nd February 2025. The meeting will be held in person only, and will be held in English. The day provides an opportunity for early-career scholars in the history of mathematics to showcase their current research and will conclude this year with a keynote lecture by Prof. Norbert Schappacher (Université de Strasbourg).
Talks will be around 20 minutes each (followed by time for questions). Research students who are interested in offering a presentation are invited to send a proposed title and abstract (under 250 words) to Christopher Hollings by 30th November 2024. Please include details of your university, supervisor, and whether you are a PhD or a Masters student. The organisers will be in touch shortly thereafter with a decision.
Registration costs will be waived for speakers, but unfortunately we are unable to guarantee travel or accommodation expenses. If you would like to request funding to speak at the conference please state this when you submit your abstract, and include a provisional budget for your expected expenses. Eligible students who require funding might wish to apply for the ICHM Grant for international research-related activity ICHM Grants | International Mathematical Union (IMU).
The day is expected to begin around 10am, and to conclude around 5pm. Further details of the conference will appear here as they become available: https://www.bshm.ac.uk/events/research-progress-5
