Every four years the History of Science Society, the British Society for the History of Science, and the Canadian Society for the History & Philosophy of Science meet jointly in mid-summer for multi-day sessions on the history of science. The "Three Societies Meeting" alternates among the US, Canada, and the UK. The History of Science Society will serve as host in 2012 and, thanks to a proposal submitted by the Philadelphia Area Center for History of Science, Philadelphia will provide the venue for this Three Societies Meeting.
The Center has awarded seven fellowships for dissertation research in area archives and libraries, as well as two fellowships for dissertation writing. Dissertation Research Fellows will spend one or two months conducting research in the Philadelphia area. Dissertation Writing Fellows will spend nine months in residence at the Center and will present their work for the Regional Colloquium in the History of Science, Technology and Medicine.
