2014 LSC Short-Term Research Fellows

By UCLA Library on Mon, 2014-02-24 01:55

The UCLA Library Special Collections Short-Term Library Research Fellowship Program <http://www.library.ucla.edu/special/fellowships> supports the use of special collections materials by visiting scholars and UCLA graduate students. Collections that are administered by UCLA Library Special Collections and available for fellowship-supported research include materials in the humanities and social sciences, medicine, life and physical sciences, visual and performing arts, and UCLA history.

Thirteen scholars will be visiting in 2014 as recipients of research awards which are supported by income from endowments in UCLA Library Special Collections:

James and Sylvia Thayer Short-Term Research Fellowships

Thayer fellowships provide support for research in any discipline. Awards are funded by an endowment  established by longtime UCLA benefactors James and Sylvia Thayer.

  • Gina Bombola (Doctoral student, Musicology, University of North Carolina/Chapel Hill)
  • Brittany Cowgill (Doctoral student, History, University of Cincinatti)
  • Alexander Elkins (Doctoral student, History, Temple University)
  • Leigh-Michel George (Doctoral student, English, UCLA)
  • Jesse Karlsberg (Doctoral student, American Studies, Emory University)
  • Devin McGeehan Muchmore (Doctoral student, American Studies, Yale University)
  • Pearl Robinson (Associate Professor, Political Science, Tufts University)
  • Larry Simon (Associate Professor, History, Western Michigan University)
  • Lauren Sinclair (Doctoral student, International Education, New York University)

Barbara Rootenberg Library Research Fellowship in the History of Medicine and the Life Sciences

The primary goal of this fellowship is to help to promote the use of materials related to the history of medicine and life sciences in UCLA Library Special Collections. The award is named for Barbara Rootenberg, an alumna of the UCLA School of Library Service and an internationally-renowned antiquarian bookseller.

  • Jeremy Wasser (Associate Professor, Veterinary Physiology and Pharmacology, Texas A&M University)

Charles Donald O’Malley Short-Term Research Fellowships for Research in the History of Medicine and Allied Fields

O’Malley fellows conduct work primarily in collections of History and Special Collections for the Sciences, the Library Special Collections unit located in the Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library; other UCLA Library Special Collections also may be used. These awards honor the memory of Charles D. O’Malley, a Vesalian scholar and the first full-time chair of the Department of Medical History at UCLA. This year the O’Malley fellowships were funded by the Irving and Jean Stone Endowed Research Fund.

  • Kristina Borrman (Masters student, Art History, UCLA)
  • Sarah Gold McBride (Doctoral student, History, University of California/Berkeley)
  • Nic Ramos (Doctoral student, American Studies and Ethnicity, University of Southern California)

The application deadline (March 1st) is approaching for one more short-term research fellowship, whose recipient(s) will be announced this Spring:

Ahmanson Research Fellowships for the Study of Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts and Books
Ahmanson fellowships of $2,500 per month for up to three months support the use of medieval and  Renaissance monographic and manuscript holdings in the Ahmanson-Murphy Collection of the Aldine Press,  Ahmanson-Murphy Collection of Early Italian Printing, Elmer Belt Library of Vinciana, Orsini Family Papers, Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts Collection, Richard and Mary Rouse Collection of Medieval and  Renaissance Manuscripts and Early Printed Books, and Medieval and Renaissance Arabic and Persian Medical  Manuscripts. They are administered by the UCLA Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies and require a separate application; application information is available on the center’s website <http://www.cmrs.ucla.edu/awards/>.
