Conference Support -- Call for Applications
=================================================

The Executive Committee of the IUHPS(DLMPS) invites applications from
members to support conferences that will take place during 2014.  The
maximum amount that IUHPS(DLMPS) can supply to support a conference is
$1500(US).  A brief letter of application should be sent to the
Secretary/Treasurer, Peter Schroeder-Heister
<secretary-general at dlmpst.org>, describing the subject of the
conference, the names of speakers, an estimate of the number of people
attending, and an indication of how much money is requested and what
that money will be used for.  The Executive Committee prefers to support
conferences that

1. will have a multi-national group of participants.
2. will include the participation of younger scholars.
3. will include the participation of individuals from outside of Europe
and North America.
4. will use video-conferencing technology in addition to having
participants travel to the conference site.

These preferences are not requirements; they are desiderata.  The
deadline for receipt of requests is November 15, 2013.

In order to be eligible, an application needs to be supported by one of
the member organizations of DLMPS/IUHPS. Conferences whose main
organizer is a member of the executive committee of the DLMPS/IUHPS are
not eligible for funding.

Elliott Sober, President
