Dear colleagues,
Greetings.
The AAS has recently announced the accepted panels for the Association for
Asian Studies Annual Conference, to be held from March 25-28 in Seattle
(in-person) and online. The Society for Song, Yuan, and Conquest Dynasties
Studies will again offer sponsorship for two panels in our research
timeframe for the 2021 AAS annual conference. The selected panels will
receive official recognition by the Society on the conference program and
on our Society website as well as a small grant of $200/person to offset
the costs of participation for up to six (6) participants (typically four
panelists, discussant, and panel chair).
Additionally, organizers of award-winning panels are encouraged to request
a supplement of up-to $500/panel to support travel costs/technological
upgrades for video conferencing for panelists. The supplemental funds will
be awarded according to demonstrated need, with a preference for emerging
scholars.
If you would like to apply for SSYCDS sponsorship for your panel, please
send your cv, panel proposal, individual paper abstracts, and the names and
contact information of panel participants to the SSYCDS Secretary (Ya Zuo
leahyzuo@gmail.com ) by November 23, 2020.
Please note that panelists must be members of the Society to receive
support. Although participants are not required to be members at the time
of application, all sponsored panel participants are required to pay
membership dues for 2021 prior to January 31, 2021. For more information
