This is a basic and crucial point for any discussion of LLMs’ use in teaching research or writing. Whether it can ape us, fool us, or get facts right or wrong is, in the end, irrelevant. The LLM is not the thinker we are trying to encourage; the LLM is not the writer that we are trying to improve.

a must attend for any ECRs who work on global history (broadly conceived). My first article was published with JGH & I had fantastic editorial support to guide me through the process - far from a guarantee in academic publishing sadly. They are setting the standard so make the most of this session!

Olivette Otele Prize 2025/26

Prize and Recognition

The winner will receive a £250 cash prize, will be invited to speak at History Lab’s annual conference in summer 2026, and to submit their paper to Historical Research, the leading generalist historical journal and flagship publication of the Institute of Historical Research.

Shortlisted scholars will receive a £30 book voucher and the opportunity to present their research at a History Lab seminar.

About the Prize

The Olivette Otele Prize was created in 2020 in response to the Royal Historical Society’s ‘Race, Ethnicity and Equality Report’ which highlighted racial inequality in the field of history.

We look forward to reading your applications!
