SES 00-01402 - Evelynn M. Hammonds (MIT) -- "Race" in the Histories of Science and Medicine: A Review Essay and a Research Agenda" This grant provides summer support that will allow the Principal Investigator to complete an essay on the historiography of the concept of race in the histories of science and medicine in the United States from 1800 to the present. The essay will be in three parts. The first part will examine the historiography of race in the histories of biology and anthropology. The second part of the essay will examine the historiography of race in the history of medicine. The final section of the essay will raise questions that have not been addressed about the history of the race concept in the existing secondary literature in these fields. This essay will be similar in form to Daniel Kevles, "Genetics in the United States and Great Britain, 1890-1930: A Review With Speculations," Isis, 1980, 71 (No.258):441-455. In this essay Kevles reviewed the literature on the history of genetics in the US and Great Britain, summarized the existing scholarship, pointed out the limitations in historical interpretation and raised the important questions that needed to be addressed in future work.The essay will be submitted for publication to Isis and to the Bulletin of the History of Medicine. The editors of both these journals have expressed interest in publishing an essay on this topic.

SES 00-01402 - Evelynn M.哈蒙德（麻省理工学院）-“种族”在科学和医学的历史：评论文章和研究议程” 这笔赠款提供夏季支持，将允许首席研究员完成一篇关于1800年至今美国科学和医学史中种族概念史学的论文。本文分三个部分。第一部分将考察生物学史和人类学史中的种族史学。文章的第二部分将考察医学史中的种族史学。文章的最后一部分将提出一些问题，这些问题在这些领域现有的二级文献中没有涉及种族概念的历史。这篇文章在形式上类似于丹尼尔·凯夫尔斯，“遗传学在美国和英国，1890-1930：一个评论与投机，”伊希斯，1980年，71（No.258）：441-455。本文回顾了美国和英国遗传学史的文献，总结了现有的学术成果，指出了历史解释的局限性，并提出了今后工作中需要解决的重要问题。本文将提交给Isis和《医学史通报》出版。这两份期刊的编辑都表示有兴趣发表一篇关于这个主题的文章。
