Call for applications
The FOUNDATION FOR THE HISTORY OF WOMEN IN MEDICINE [1] will provide one $5000 grant to support travel, lodging, and incidental expenses for a flexible research period between _JULY 1ST 2014 - JUNE 30TH2015_.
Foundation Fellowships are offered for research related to the history of women to be conducted at the CENTER FOR THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE [2] at the Francis A. Countway Library of Medicine, Boston, Massachusetts. Preference will be given to projects that deal specifically with women physicians or other health workers or medical scientists, but proposals dealing with the history of women's health issues may also be considered.
Manuscript collections which may be of special interest include the recently-opened MARY ELLEN AVERY PAPERS [3], the LEONA BAUMGARTNER PAPERS [4], and the GRETE BIBRING PAPERS [5] (find out more about our collections at WWW.COUNTWAY.HARVARD.EDU/AWM[6]). Preference will be given to those who are using collections from the Center's Archives for Women in Medicine (see the full list of collections HERE [7]), but research on the topic of women in medicine using other material from the Countway Library will be considered. Preference will also be given to applicants who live beyond commuting distance of the Countway, but all are encouraged to apply, including graduate students.

Applicants should submit a proposal (no more than two pages) outlining the subject and objectives of the research project, length of residence, historical materials to be used, and a project budget (including travel, lodging, and research expenses), along with a curriculum vitae and two letters of recommendation by MARCH 15TH, 2014. The fellowship proposal should demonstrate that the Countway Library has resources central to the research topic.
