Call for abstracts: 5th PhiGS Graduate Colloquium<\/p>\n
Kent PhiGS — the philosophy graduate society at the University of Kent at Canterbury (United Kingdom) —\u00a0 is pleased to announce its Fifth Annual Graduate Colloquium, to take place on 21-22 June 2023 at the University of Kent, and online.<\/p>\n
The Colloquium aims to promote discussion among graduate researchers working in the same general areas as us at Kent, where we have a wide range of topics of inquiry. Such diversity promotes the advancement of inquiry through cross-pollination between fields, and the Colloquium seeks to facilitate such fruitful encounters. We invite submissions from graduate researchers — masters as well as doctoral — on the following or related topics:<\/p>\n
– Philosophy of mental health, especially concerning autonomy and responsibility<\/p>\n
– Role ethics<\/p>\n
– Philosophy of medicine, especially concerning disease definition<\/p>\n
– Epistemology, especially disagreement and belief formation<\/p>\n
– Gradualist approaches in metaphysics and ontology<\/p>\n
– Pragmati(ci)st approaches in philosophy of science and metaphysics<\/p>\n
– Approaches to mathematical semantics<\/p>\n
– Conception of the self by liberal theories<\/p>\n
– Evidential Pluralism and Artificial Intelligence<\/p>\n
– Reconciling the manifest and scientific image, especially with respect to time.<\/p>\n
Submissions should take the form of an abstract of no more than 400 words, the talks themselves being about 30 minutes in length. Abstracts should be anonymised, in PDF format, and sent as attachments to an email. In the body of the email please give name and return email address, as well as institutional affiliation and whether you wish to present at the Colloquium in person or online. We understand that it is the nature of these talks to be works-in-progress, so there is no requirement to submit a whole paper in advance: the talk, when given, is the paper. The language of the Colloquium is English. Please send abstracts to Mark Garron at mg734@kent.ac.uk, to arrive no later than 20 March 2023.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, we do not have funds for travel and accommodation for graduate speakers, although your own institution may be able to provide such a facility if you wish to present in person. We do, however, intend to provide light refreshments and lunch for all in-person speakers and attendees.<\/p>\n
