POTSDAM -- An associate professor of history at Clarkson University received the John W. Graham Jr. Faculty Research Award at the school's graduation on May 10.

The $1,500 research accounts are granted to faculty "who have shown promise in engineering, business, liberal arts or scientific research," according to the school.

Casper joined Clarkson University as a visiting assistant professor and was promoted to assistant professor in 2010.

Casper’s scholarship focuses on the history of science and medicine. He has written extensively on the history of the mind and brain sciences in Europe and North America, Clarkson said.

He is working on several new projects, including a special issue of the academic journal Science in Context, an edited volume on technology and therapy in the mind and brain sciences and a monograph exploring intellectual, social and political histories of physiology in the Anglo-American world from 1870 to 1970.
