Early Career Scholars Workshop Podcast
|
|
|
This podcast series offers professional development information for early career scholars--and perhaps even some helpful refreshers for more established scholars. The series stems from a Consortium working group organized by Barbara Hof and Climério Silva Neto in collaboration with the Division for the History of Science and Technology of the International Union of History and Philosophy of Science and Technology.
The episodes feature discussions with recognized international scholars on:
- Introduction to Writing Good & Fair Book Reviews
- Best Practice in Oral History Interviewing and Analysis
- Roundtable Discussion on Journals as a Means of Shaping the Production & Dissemination of Knowledge
- Career Diversity
- Roundtable Discussion on Collaborative Research & Writing
- Content and Submission of Book Proposals
- Grant Writing Master Class
Listen to the podcasts.

The Consortium's working groups are held online and are open to all interested scholars. Each working group convenes monthly for discussions of works-in-progress or important published texts on a wide variety of specialized subfields in history of science, technology and medicine. Join one or more groups, and participate in the conversation.
You can also submit a paper for discussion in one of the working groups.
All times listed below are EDT (UTC-4:00). Log in at www.chstm.org, and set your time zone for the correct local time for each meeting.
