After a brief hiatus, our CFP blog is back. First up, remember that the deadline for the 2010 CAAS-sponsored conference, “Health/Care/Nation” has been extended. You can see more details here: http://uwindsor.ca/caas2010/call-for-papers.
Now, on to the other CFPs:
A quick post to say that the deadline for abstracts for “Health/Care/Nation” has been extended to April 28th! See the CFP here: http://uwindsor.ca/caas2010/call-for-papers.
For the Canadians out there, you know how important it is for our conference organizers to be able to submit as full a program as possible in our SSHRC conference-grant proposal: getting one of these grants allows us to offer grad student funding for the conference, among other things. So, if you’ve been meaning to submit, but end of term has been getting in the way, now’s the time to fight back, and write that proposal!
