For over three decades, Phunday has been the event to meet fellow historians of science, exchange ideas, and receive valuable input in a collegial atmosphere. Graduate students and postdocs will share new projects and ideas through pre-circulated short papers (±10 pages) for comments by attending faculty and peers.

The weekend will be ample with opportunities to chat about life, research, and beyond. We welcome attendees that work on the physical and natural sciences broadly construed, including but not limited to fields such as computing, physics, mathematics, ecology, and engineering, and geographies beyond a Global North framing for the history of science.

We love to see fresh work and big ideas!
