Scientific Instrument Commission Sessions
International Congress of History of Science, Technology, and Medicine
Manchester, England

TO SUBMIT A PAPER, please use this special portal for SIC papers:
http://ichstm2013.com/abstractsubmission/?sic
The DEADLINE for submissions is Friday 30 November 2012.
THEMES suggested by the SIC Board:
Trade and transfer of instruments. This is could be between individuals,
manufacturers, retailers, institutions, countries, Europe and the Americas, or
other pairings. We encourage people who could not travel to Rio de Janeiro to
speak on this topic in Manchester.
Time. Acceptable papers can be about any kind of scientific instrument related
to time measuring, time finding, time recording, time and work, time and music,
time and psychology, time and navigation, time in sports, or any other topic
involving time-associated instruments.
Other topics are also welcome as long as they concern the history of scientific
instruments, preservation, conservation, or documentation of collections of
instruments, or their use within the wider disciplines related to scientific
heritage and the history of science.
The SIC especially welcomes papers from students and young scholars and hopes
to be able to offer a few modest travel grants to such to attend the 2013
meeting and deliver a paper.
Sincerely,
Sara Schechner
SIC Secretary
