The Poster Forum allows scholars to discuss work in a different format than in regular PSA sessions (which is doubly true for a virtual session) and also offers an opportunity to present a greater diversity of work not included in regular sessions, including teaching and outreach and engagement activities.
The 2021 Virtual Poster Forum occurs over three Fridays (Jan. 22, Jan. 29, and Feb. 5) from 12:00 - 15:00 EST. Each day will feature three sessions organized around a common theme (see schedule below). These sessions will include an introduction by a well-known scholar in the field, followed by breakout sessions with poster participants. In addition to these virtual live sessions, attendees will also have access to a virtual poster exhibit, which showcases posters and short videos.
Registration, which is free for PSA Members, is required for the event. To register and learn more, visit the registration page.

Dear friends & colleagues,
It is our pleasure to announce the next meeting of the Société de philosophie des sciences (SPS : https://www.sps-philoscience.org/) that will take place on September 8 – 10 2021 at the University of Mons (Belgium). Organising committee: Antoine Brandelet (University of Mons), Anne Staquet (University of Mons), Jérémy Attard (University of Mons), Alice Van Helden (University of Namur), Bertrand Hespel (University of Namur), Dominique Lambert (University of Namur).
The main theme of the 2021 congress will be: “Sciences and scientificity”
More information can be found on the website.
Please find below some inspiring key words:
- Science and pseudoscience
- Challenges imposed by the evolution of scientific practices (e.g. open data, participatory science, publication of negative results)
- Production of ignorance (scientific expertise, fake news, merchants of doubt, etc.)
- Scientific values, scientific integrity and evaluation of science
- Scientific culture (“public understanding of science”)
NOTA BENE: any proposal for a contribution on any topic in the field of philosophy of science will be considered.
The meeting is composed of:
(1) Invited speakers: Marion Vorms (Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne), Jean-Pierre Cléro (Centre Bentham Paris & Université de Rouen), Stephan Lewandowsky (University of Bristol), Guillaume Lecointre (Muséum national d’histoire naturelle), Alan Sokal (New York University & University College London), Brigitte Axelrad (Université de Grenoble, vice-présidente de l'AFIS).
(2) Symposia (In English or French) of 3-4 interventions on one specific theme; the total length of a symposium is 1:30-2:00 depending on the number of included interventions. Symposia are highly recommended, notably if they include both scientific and philosophical interventions.
(3) Individual papers (In English or French), suitable for a 30-minute presentation (discussion included),
