| NESBIT AWARD The Robert Nesbit Graduate Student Paper Award is named in honor of long-time SAHMS member, Dr. Bob Nesbit, who has been a stalwart member of SAHMS nearly from its beginning. We recognize his many contributions to the organization and his consistent and steadfast leadership. The award named for him recognizes graduate student papers that engage with the scholarship of the history of medicine, science, and technology—or related fields—and that present a compelling contribution to the field. It is open to all graduate students who present at the annual conference, and we invite our winners to publish in the SAHMS journal. The winner for 2025 is: Nick Elwing (University of Alabama), ““Lord have mercy on me! I have given the wrong medication”: Alabama’s Legal and Institutional March Towards Professionalization, 1823-1891” SAHMS 2027 Conference The 2027 SAHMS Conference will be March 4-6 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
