CHCMS grants for attending the 14ICHC in Valencia, 11-14 June 2025
The Commission on the History of Chemistry and Molecular Sciences (CHCMS) of the DHST is offering grants to support attendance of early-career scholars at the 14th International Conference on the History of Chemistry (14ICHC) in Valencia, Spain, 11-14 June 2025.
Awards of up to €350 (for scholars from Europe) and €600 (for scholars from beyond) will be offered as a contribution towards the cost of travel, accommodation, and registration fees for those giving a paper at the conference. CHCMS expects that grantees attend the entire conference, unless there are exceptional circumstances. This grant is open to master’s students, doctoral students, and those who have obtained a PhD since January 2018.
Applicants are invited to send a cover letter, their CV, their submitted abstract for the 14ICHC, and an estimation of the conference fees, travel, and accommodation costs to the CHCMS treasurer and to the CHCMS chair.
The deadline for applications for the CHCMS grants is February 28, 2025. It is expected that applicants will be advised on the outcome of their application on March 15, 2025, in time to register for early-bird conference fees, which are available until April 15, 2025.
There is also a separate scheme from SHAC (Society for the History of Alchemy and Chemistry) for ICHC14. Applying for the CHCMS grant does not preclude application for the SHAC grant and vice versa. However, it should be noted that there are different eligibility requirements for the two schemes. Should an application be made to both schemes, the evaluation process will be coordinated between SHAC and CHCMS.
