Hello loves. Academic begging time - is anyone willing to share their application (successful or not) to the AHRC Curiosity Scheme? I know there won't be many about but thought it was worth a speculative tweet #twitterstorians

📢We have just re-advertised our PhD studentship on Global Commodities in #EarlyModern wills📢

The successful student has lots of scope to shape it: this post outlines some themes they might explore. Please share!
