2nd Annual Virtual Conference for Graduate Students and Early Career Researchers
February 19-21, 2026, via Zoom

Abstract Deadline: January 23, 2026

The American Association for the History of Nursing (AAHN) invites submissions for a virtual conference on space, place, and patients from senior undergraduate students, graduate students, and early career researchers (defined as up to 5 years post-PhD).

Submissions that consider nurses or the role of the nursing profession in these issues are welcomed. However, presentations can consider any aspect of healthcare history within any geographic or temporal frame.

You do not need to be an AAHN member to submit an abstract, but accepted presenters must be (or become) members to present at the conference. We offer a special membership discount for students: two students from the same institution can become members for $100 USD. More information on AAHN membership and membership benefits can be found here.

Presenters will have 20 minutes to deliver their paper, followed by a 10-minute question and answer period.

Please upload your 250-word abstract AAHN Graduate Student & Early Career Researcher Online Conference Abstract Submissions – Fill out form by January 23, 2025.  We will notify the accepted presenters by the end of January.
