The British Society for the History of Mathematics
Forthcoming events are listed below, as well as recent ones. Enquiries about meetings should be addressed to the named organiser of the meeting. Due to limitations on numbers at some events it is essential that bookings for meetings be received by the stated deadline: it should not be assumed that extra places will be available either after the deadline or on the day. If in any doubt, contact the organiser of the meeting. The Society has made available a limited fund to subsidise student attendance at BSHM organised or co-organised conferences. Requests for support under this initiative should be made initially to the conference organiser.
The Society also maintains a list of other meetings which are not associated with the BSHM, but which may nonetheless be of interest to members.
A list of the Society's events from 1992 to 2007 is available in our archive pages, as well as a list of talks given at those meetings.
