SHOT Virtual Annual Meeting 2021, 18-21 November  

View almost 200 recordings of session from SHOT's Annual Meeting  2021: This was a joint meeting with the History of Science Society (HSS). After much discussion and information-gathering, the SHOT officers, Executive Council members and SHOT New Orleans local arrangements chair decided that the 2021 meeting, originally scheduled in New Orleans, would be, and was, entirely online! 

A number of considerations factored into this decision. Most importantly, the resurgence of COVID in New Orleans and surrounding areas renders it impossible to safely offer the kind of in-person conference experience that SHOT members have come to expect. Secondly, many participants who reside outside the United States would not have been able to attend even if the U.S. government lifts some travel restrictions. Questions remained about which vaccines would be considered valid. Some travelers would also face strict quarantine requirements when returning home. Many universities and other employers had restrictions on travel and travel funds. Those who could travel still had to confront the problem of scarce and expensive airline tickets. 

Central theme of the meeting was “Environment, Infrastructure, and Social Justice”, with particular attention to the role of race and anti-Black racism in history. The Program Committee created an inspiring program. The fact that SHOT and HSS shared the same virtual meeting platform allowed all participants to attend regular (= that don’t require special pre-registration) SHOT and HSS sessions. As you will discover numerous joint sessions are available as recordings.

Special fee offered for viewing recordings only, after the actual meeting.
