>2)  FHHS/JHBS John C. Burnham Early Career Award
>
>The Forum for History of Human Science (FHHS) and the Journal of the
>History of the Behavioral Science (JHBS) encourage researchers early
>in their careers to submit unpublished manuscripts for the annual
>John C. Burnham Early Career Award, named in honor of this prominent
>historian of the human sciences and past-editor of JHBS. The journal
>will publish the winning paper with a notice of the award, and the
>publisher will provide the author of the paper an honorarium of US
>$500.
>
>Here are the guidelines for the award:
>
>  Unpublished manuscripts dealing with any aspect(s) of the history
>of the human sciences are welcome. Eligible scholars are those who
>do not hold tenured university positions (or equivalent); graduate
>students and independent scholars are encouraged to submit. Early
>career is interpreted to include the period up to seven (7) years
>beyond the Ph.D. Since competition may be high in any given year,
>people are encouraged to re-submit in subsequent years, as long as
>the manuscript has not been already submitted to some other journal
>and the submitting scholar is still in early career.
>
>The paper submitted is the most important aspect of the competition,
>but since this is an early career award, the prize committee will
>also consider professional activities, including (though not limited
>to) participation in annual meetings of the History of Science
>Society and other scholarly work. The submission consists of three
>copies of the paper and three copies of the candidate's c.v. The
>paper must meet the publishing guidelines of the JHBS; for
>conference papers, these guidelines generally include revision and
>expansion to create an article-length paper.
>
>The committee will acknowledge receipt of each submission and will
>promptly confirm its eligibility. The committee s selection of the
>prizewinner (the nominee to JHBS editors) will be announced at the
>annual History of Science Society meeting (held October or
>November). (If there are no appropriate submissions in any given
>year, no award will be given for that year.)
>
>FHHS will promptly notify JHBS of its endorsement, and the
>manuscript will go through the regular refereeing process of the
>journal. After the editors of JHBS have accepted the nominated paper
>for publication, it will be published on their timetable and the
>publisher will issue the honorarium. Although it is technically
>possible that someone might win the Burnham Early Career Award and
>not receive the honorarium, FHHS and JHBS do not expect this to
>happen under normal circumstances.
>
>Deadline: April 30. Send three copies of unpublished manuscript and
>of c.v., to Nadine Weidman, Secretary of FHHS, 138 Woburn St.,
>Medford MA 02155
>
>For more information on both awards, see the FHHS website:
