Postdoctoral Fellows and Graduate Student Notes ~ Fall 2022

Postdoctoral Fellows

Qiu Lin was invited to contribute a book chapter to The Bloomsbury Handbook on Du Châtelet (ed. Fatema Amijee). The volume is scheduled to come out in early 2024. A symposium she organized (participants: Fatema Amijee, Katherine Brading, Andrew Janiak and Qiu Lin), Du Châtelet as Philosopher of Physics, was selected as Philosophy of Science Association Women's Caucus Prize Symposium. This is the first historical theme that received this Prize. The news will be announced officially in the PSA's 2022 biennial meeting. Qiu was also invited to give a talk about Du Châtelet at Reappearing Ink: Celebrating the Legacy of Eileen O'Neil. The conference will be held at UMass Amherst in April 2023.
