The conference will be devoted to various interactions between law and cognitive science(s). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ● heuristics, cognitive biases, & law ● emotions, reasoning, intuition, & law ● cognitive structure of legal concepts ● legal reasoning & cognitive science ● Artificial Intelligence, cognitive science, & law ● cognitive science in empirical legal research ● legal education & cognitive science ● cognitive science & naturalization of law.

We intend the masterclass to be a fully interactive in person event, with the twofold objective to understand in depth the materials presented in the lectures, and to provide early career researchers (PhD students and postdocs) with an opportunity to discuss their ongoing work in a helpful and constructive environment. The lectures by Jean Paul Van Bendegem will take place in the mornings, and will be followed by afternoon sessions with presentations by early career researchers in the Philosophy of Mathematical Practices.

The International Congress of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science and Technology (CLMPST) is organized under the auspices of the Division of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science and Technology of the International Union of History and Philosophy of Science and Technology(DLMPST/IUHPST).

In this edition of the congress the theme is Science and Values in an Uncertain World. CLMPST 2023 takes place in a world that, in many ways, is quite different from the one we knew just a few years ago. The 2020 pandemic questioned our sense of security reminding us we live in a fragile environment with an uncertain future. The challenges of our time, from the pandemics to climate change, make it particularly appropriate to ponder on the role of values in science and technology, from the ethics of empirical research and scientific communication, to the design of public policies that need the weighing of scientific evidence; from discussions on biases in the design of algorithms, to reflections on the responsible development of Artificial Intelligence.

The symposium will focus on the process of discovery of proofs, the ways of reasoning used in proving propositions and solving problems, the styles used in conveying semantic information and exposing purported proofs, how they are understood by the members of the relevant communities in various cultures, and how mathematical and logical texts and stylistic traditions are interpreted across historical times and varied cultural contexts.

During the first decades of the twentieth-century, the dissemination of Russell’s ideas played a crucial role for the spread of a novel approach to philosophy. It is well known that Russell’s scientific philosophy rapidly found a great deal of resonance among philosophers in the Anglo-Saxon world, eventually leading to the development of the analytic movement. Still, many questions regarding the reception of his scientific philosophy remain unresolved. Why did so many English and American philosophers align themselves with Russell’s concept of philosophy? What role did the reception of Russell’s scientific philosophy play outside the Anglophone world, e.g. in China, France, Germany, the Soviet-Union, Turkey, or India? And how was Russell’s scientific philosophy understood by other philosophical movements, including Neo-Thomism, monism, and Neo-Kantianism? The aim of this workshop is to address the reception of Russell’s scientific philosophy to learn more about the multifarious early history of analytic philosophy.

Likely pathways from the inanimate to the animate world involve a transition that can be thought of as the emergence of information in molecular systems. Before this transition, heteropolymers already exist, but the sequence information of a polymer does not persist beyond the lifetime of the polymer. During the transition, information becomes a separate dynamical entity, which lives and changes over longer timescales than its carrier molecules. This transition does not necessarily require the existence of a full-fledged replication machinery, such as polymerase enzymes that copy informational polymers. Instead, the interplay of simpler reactions can create strong correlations in pools of informational polymers, which can also decouple the timescales of the informational dynamics from those of the polymer dynamics. This interplay is only beginning to be studied, experimentally as well as computationally and theoretically, such that many conceptual and methodological questions are currently open. The central aim of this workshop is to bring together scientists with different backgrounds, in order to attack these questions together.
