This project will support participation of US scholars in the international conference, "Unity and Disunity' in science, which is the 8th International Conference of the European Society for the History of Science held in conjunction with the British Society for the History of Science. The sessions will take place on 14-17 September 2018 mainly at University of College London's Institute of Education, though some sessions will be held at the Royal Institution and the Science Museum. The participation of US scholars in this European conference will serve to foster international relations and to ensure that early-career and independent scholars, as well as senior scholars, are able to participate, thus helping to diversify and expand the perspectives at the conference, and the collaborations that may be expected to materialize as a result of the US participation, which promises to add dimensions to the discussion of the unity and disunity of science, and the other topics that will be discussed in the 67 accepted symposia. All the US participants are appearing in sessions with European scholars, and such intellectual interactions are expected to lead to intellectual collaborations that may include new projects as well as future publications. In addition, reports of the conference proceedings will be disseminated among a wide variety of US-based society newsletters, such as those of the History of Science Society as well as the International Society for the History, Philosophy, and Social Studies of Science, and notices will also appear in various social media outlets, with the aim of leading to a broader public awareness of the fruits of studies of science, technology, and society. The conference will bring together historians of science from many regions of the world to consider the conference theme, broadly construed. Symposia will address, among other topics, unity and disunity within science, technology, and/or medicine across diverse sciences, nations and blocs, periods, and historiographies; unity and disunity as ideals and realities; and unity and disunity as characterizing relations between the sciences and politics, technology, economics, and the arts. This grant will promote US scholars' contributions in the international exploration of these topics, with particular attention given to the promotion of forming new scholarly relationships among different nationalities, new collaborative projects, and inclusion of participants with limited institutional support, with special focus on graduate students and independent scholars.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将支持美国学者参加国际会议，“团结与不团结”的科学，这是第八届国际会议的欧洲科学史学会与英国科学史学会联合举行。会议将于2018年9月14日至17日主要在伦敦大学教育学院举行，但也有一些会议将在皇家研究所和科学博物馆举行。美国学者参加这次欧洲会议将有助于促进国际关系，并确保早期职业和独立学者以及高级学者能够参加，从而有助于多样化和扩大会议的观点，以及由于美国的参与而有望实现的合作。它有望为科学的统一性和不统一性的讨论以及将在67个被接受的专题讨论会上讨论的其他主题增加维度。所有的美国参与者都出现在与欧洲学者的会议上，这种智力互动预计将导致智力合作，其中可能包括新的项目以及未来的出版物。此外，会议记录的报告将在美国各种各样的社会通讯中传播，如科学史学会和国际科学史、哲学和社会研究学会的通讯，并在各种社交媒体上发布通知，旨在使公众更广泛地了解科学、技术、和社会会议将汇集来自世界许多地区的科学历史学家，以考虑会议主题，广泛解释。研讨会将解决，除其他议题外，团结和不团结的科学，技术和/或医学跨不同的科学，国家和集团，时期和历史;团结和不团结的理想和现实;和团结和不团结作为表征科学与政治，技术，经济和艺术之间的关系。这笔赠款将促进美国学者在这些主题的国际探索中的贡献，特别注意促进不同国籍之间形成新的学术关系，新的合作项目，以及在有限的机构支持下纳入参与者，特别关注研究生和独立学者。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估。
