"C'est une Révolte?" "Non, Sire, c'est une Révolution." __________ A dialogue said to have taken place between Louis XVI and the Duke of La Rochefoucauld-Liancourt upon hearing the news of the fall of the Bastille

Abbiamo in serbo bellissimi eventi tra cui un workshop in cui @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social presenterà il keynote lecture, ma anche reading group e opportunità per socializzare e accedere a un mentorato informale. Spargete la voce!

Stiamo sollecitando chiunque si interessi di filosofia delle scienze della vita (biologia, medicina, ma anche antropologia, dati & tecnologia, conservazione ecc) a iscriversi al nostro network di PIPoLS. L’iscrizione è ovviamente gratuita e permette di rimanere aggiornat sulle attività del network.

🎯La missione di #PIPoLS? 🚀Intendiamo promuovere e rafforzare approcci alla #filosofia delle scienze della vita radicati nelle pratiche e nelle istituzioni scientifiche, alimentati dal dialogo #interdisciplinare e in grado di integrare teoria, ricerca empirica e riflessione epistemologica ed #etica.

Una novità da tenere d'occhio!
