Dear Professor Janoski-Haehlen,

I am writing to provide notice of the Laura Bassi Scholarship’s Winter 2019 round of funding and would be grateful if, as before, you could share the details with your department, particularly master’s and doctoral candidates, as well as junior academics. The description is pasted below with the updated deadlines:

The Laura Bassi Scholarship, which awards a total of $8,000 thrice per annum, was established by Editing Press in 2018 with the aim of providing editorial assistance to postgraduates and junior academics whose research focuses on neglected topics of study, broadly construed. The scholarships are open to every discipline and the next round of funding will be awarded in December 2019:

    Winter 2019
    Application deadline: 25 November 2019
    Results: 15 December 2019

All currently enrolled master’s and doctoral candidates are eligible to apply, as are academics in the first five years of their employment. Applicants are required to submit a completed application form along with their CV through the application portal by the relevant deadline. Further details, previous winners, and the application portal can be found at: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fediting.press%2Fbassi&data=02%7C01%7Cejanoskihaehlen%40uakron.edu%7Cad3dc72a5fd54122fa4b08d7525bcfc5%7Ce8575dedd7f94ecea4aa0b32991aeedd%7C0%7C0%7C637068426595907558&sdata=MgVv3Uzjs4NpoM3JKEhLHoNoDQQlHLJwU8x7BVJEt9M%3D&reserved=0

With best wishes,

Charles Anderson
