Just wondering if any other Post-Grad's and ECR's are using Confluence?  If so, how are you guys using it?  I will be finishing my thesis later this year with a bit (huge bit) of luck and was hoping to use Confluence as way to keep in touch with the larger academic community etc.

Cheers,

Paul Sutton.

Hi Paul

We are just learning how to use Confluence in a training workshop, and will make a better effort to use it in future. Hope your thesis is going well?

Hi Paul.

Anne Brumley and Natasha Amendola have just been training in using Confluence. You will probably see more of us soon!

Hi Paul,

I am at a Confluence workshop in Perth at the moment trying to learn how to use this.  Hopefully get the hang of it soon....

Hi everyone,

 I've just had this conference/bursary brought to my attention, and thought someone out there might possibly be interested in applying for it... Anyone interested in Anglo-Norman studies?

Cheers & good luck!

 ALLEN BROWN MEMORIAL TRUST

Muriel Brown Postgraduate Student Bursaries

The Allen Brown Memorial Trust was established in 1991 to promote  
study and research in Medieval History with special reference to Anglo-
Norman Studies.  It organises the Battle Conference on Anglo-Norman  
Studies, during which the Allen Brown Memorial lecture is given.  The  
conference brings together leading scholars from all over the world to  
discuss themes associated with the impact of the Normans on European  
medieval history and culture.  Its programme is published on its  
website at http://www.battleconference.com/

In 2007 the Trust received a legacy from Allen Brown's sister, Muriel  
Brown, and it wishes to use the income from this bequest to give  
postgraduate students, working in the field of Anglo-Norman Studies,  
the opportunity to attend the conference. Attendance at the conference  
will give postgraduate students the chance to hear the latest research  
findings and to build networks with fellow scholars.

The award of a Muriel Brown Postgraduate Student bursary will provide  
a postgraduate student, registered for a higher degree at a British  
university with a free conference place and a discretionary travel  
bursary.  The award will be made by assessors chosen by the Trustees  
(currently Prof David Bates and Prof John Gillingham):

Expressions of interest should be made to the Secretary (Dr Kathleen  
Thompson k.thompson@sheffield.ac.uk) by 30 June 2008.  Applicants  
should give:

   - their name;
   - postal and email addresses;
   - telephone number;
   - proposed thesis title;
   - University and department;
   - supervisor's name;
   - other source(s) of funding and
   - whether they are studying full or part-time.

Finally, we would like a 300 word description, written by the student,  
outlining their research topic and why it is important.

Successful applicants will be notified by 15 July and will be required  
to secure the signature of their supervisor, head of department or  
research director to verify their status as bona fide students before  
the award can be finalised.

Housley, Prof N.J.
