Dear Members of the Health Humanities and Disability Justice Community,

Given the tremendous response from UCR graduate students and medical
students who would like to participate in the work of this initiative, we
have decided to use some of our grant funds to offer as many small, event
or project-based HHDJ Fellowships for graduate and medical students as
possible.

We are sending this first to our current email list–and encourage all
graduate and medical students to apply! Also, please feel free to circulate
this to your own networks. HHDJ Fellows will receive $250 per approved
application. Ways to participate include but are not limited to:


   -

   Give a talk to publicize your own completed work
   -

   Create a blog or vlog for our website on your research topic
   -

   Host a reading group one or more works of serious interest to you (here
   consider materials that are freely available online or through UCR)
   -

   Organize a “work in process” event centering your own work
   -

   Participate in the organization of a grad symposium, workshop, or
   conference
   -

   Join us in developing our disability resource page (or let us know of
   your own!)
   -

   Request support in field research in local archives or local communities


To apply: For UCR graduate students and  medical students interested in
applying for a fellowship, click here to submit an application.
<https://forms.gle/Ad2bntgstbZEiFEB6>  There is no deadline for this,
rather rolling applications through the three years of our grant. But since
funds are not unlimited, the sooner the better.


If you have questions, feel free to email all or any one of us: Fuson Wang (
fuson.wang at ucr.edu), Carla Mazzio (carlam at ucr.edu) and Matthew King (
mking at ucr.edu).

We'll be moving (and developing) our project content to a new HHDJ LAB
website <https://hhdj.ucr.edu/> very soon (now very much under
construction!), but for now, for upcoming events and other information,  please
click here for the Health Humanities and Disability Justice (HHDJ)
Initiative information page.
