ISBS annual meeting attended; annual biosemiotic prize to be launched - details to be worked out
On Thursday July 3rd, during the 14th International Gathering in Biosemiotics (London, 30th of June to 4th
of July), I attended the annual meeting of the International Society for Biosemiotic Studies (ISBS).
Among the topics were the proposed "Biosemiotic Discovery Prize" - a draft of the statutes for this prize, composed by Timo Maran, Alexei Sharov and myself (and language edited by Paul Cobley), was presented at the ISBS annual meeting and at the preceding panel presentation of the journal Biosemiotics. Different concerns were raised. At the annual meeting it was decided, on the suggestion of Jesper Hoffmeyer (the ISBS President), that the three mentioned Editors-in-Chief of Biosemiotics will invite the GiB14 participants to suggest changes in the prize statutes, and then decide on the final version of the statutes. We are currently in the process of receiving such suggestions.
