Im Rahmen der Verleihung des nunmehr 31. Romanikpreises möchten wir Sie herzlich einladen, Ihre Vorschläge für die künftigen Preisträger zu unterbreiten.
Um den Romanikpreis zu beleben, hat sich die Jury und der Romanikbeirat für zwei Kategorien entschieden:
The Paul Bunge Prize of the Hans R. Jenemann Foundation is now open for applications for the award next year. The prize is endowed with 7,500 euros and honors studies on the history of scientific instruments. It is awarded for individual works from the last five years or for lifetime achievements. Works can be submitted in German, English or French. Both self-applications and nominations are welcome.
The awarding of the prize is decided by the foundation's advisory board, which is supported by the GDCh and the German Bunsen Society for Physical Chemistry.
The seed funding is designed for early-career postdoctoral scholars and aims to provide financial support to kick-start new, innovative research projects. The funds can be used locally, there is no need to come to Regensburg to be eligible for this grant. The deadline for application is 30 September 2025.
Gale and NACBS seek applications for 5 Gale-NACBS Non-Residential Fellowships, which will support research or teaching projects that rely on Gale Primary Sources, including those held in Gale’s British Library Newspapers series and Decolonization collection, and use digital humanities methodologies.
Colleagues have observed with increasing alarm the growth of contingent faculty positions at the expense of tenure track lines throughout the field of art history. Given this new reality, the NFAH would like to be the first to address it by way of new fellowships designed around the specific needs of contingent faculty. Realizing that many contingent faculty cannot take regular full-year fellowships without losing the tenuous support of their positions, these new NFAH fellowships aim to supply two or three subsequent summers of research leave.
The National Geographic Society, in partnership with the Conrad Hilton Foundation’s Safe Water Initiative, invites proposals from storytellers to create and disseminate content that raises public awareness about sustainable freshwater use. This initiative seeks to illuminate global freshwater challenges, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa, Western Asia, and the Middle East. Projects can take various forms, including photography, film, and data visualization.
