Work intervenes 5 Jul 2009 I am going to a couple of conferences over the next fortnight. They are in Brisbane, so I don’t have to cross any water. One is the annual Australian HPS conference, and the other is the biennial international HPS of biology conference. They will both be what passes for fun in history and philosophy of biology/science, and I’m giving talks at both. Which I have to prepare. This week.

Thanks John. I’ll probably just ask my HAPS lecturer next week about Chadaverian’s talk, if I can’t trawl anything up via google scholar.
