Gender and Intersectionality in Science, Technology, and Medicine: Historical Perspectives
Call for papers
University of Granada, Spain, 2–3 June 2023
International Conference of the Commission on Women and Gender of the History of Science, Technology, and Medicine
We invite proposals for organized sessions and individual presentations that engage with the theme, “Gender and Intersectionality in Science, Technology, and Medicine: Historical Perspectives.”
We encourage proposals that interrogate the multi-agent histories of women, gender and sexuality in science, technology and medicine, with particular attention to the roles played by constructions of race/ethnicity, class and further social categories that impacted personal and professional lives in a range of geographical and temporal contexts.
Historiographical traditions in studies of women and gender in science, technology, and medicine have offered analytical frameworks of individual careers, networks of people, and material objects and ideas to promote a more inclusive history of science, technology and medicine. Through this conference, we seek to interrogate the extent to which the concept of intersectionality aligns with contemporary ethos and efforts toward inclusive scholarships in the historiographies of gender, women and sexuality in science, technology and medicine. We especially encourage proposals that consider institutional and geographical contexts beyond the academies of the North/West, in medical, government, NGO, civic, industrial, and corporate institutions. We encourage situated analytical approaches and methodologies with a particular focus on feminist activism, bodies, affect/emotions, queer identities, human-animal studies and ecosocialities among other themes.
We welcome proposals from doctoral students and early career scholars within five years of receiving degrees, for whom limited travel funding will be available.
The deadline for submitting organised sessions and individual presentations is January 31, 2023.
For further details on submissions, please visit the Commission on Women and Gender in History of Science, Technology and Medicine webpage.

Dr. Nurse: Science, Politics, and the Transformation of American Nursing
Professor Dominique A. Tobbell
Publisher : University of Chicago Press; First edition (January 10, 2023)
Language : English
Hardcover : 312 pages
ISBN-13 : 978-0226822884
Nurses represent the largest segment of the U.S. health care workforce and spend significantly more time with patients than any other member of the health care team. Dr. Nurse probes their history to examine major changes that have taken place in American health care in the second half of the twentieth century. The book reveals how federal and state health and higher education policies shaped education within health professions after World War II.
Starting in the 1950s, academic nurses sought to construct a science of nursing—distinct from that of the related biomedical or behavioral sciences—that would provide the basis for nursing practice. Their efforts transformed nursing’s labor into a valuable site of knowledge production and proved how the application of their knowledge was integral to improving patient outcomes. Exploring the knowledge claims, strategies, and politics involved as academic nurses negotiated their roles and nursing’s future, Dr. Nurse highlights how state-supported health centers have profoundly shaped nursing education and health care delivery.
