Logical empiricist anti-exceptionalism in its Austro-German context

The first article in the special issue @martinkusch.bsky.social and I are coediting is out! Thomas Uebel lays to rest various myths about the Vienna Circle views of social sciences, proving yet again that they were right about pretty much everything. #philsci #philsky #histsci #sts

I don’t work now on feminist philosophy (of science) but is always in the background for me, and I really loved studying with Alison Jaggar! Great pic 😊

1st-ever symposium on philosophy of seismology: @alisabokulich.bsky.social on Peircean abduction & inverse modelling, @terumiyake.bsky.social on 'problem of the missing model' in seismology, optics, and thermal physics; @cristianlarph.bsky.social on quantification in seismology (joint work with me).

Surely our seismology PSA symposium is on his honor!
I got to learn about him thanks to @miguelohn.bsky.social and it also made a big impact. I can’t imagine teaching a general phil sci course not having “Closing the loop” in the readings.

YouTube video by MN Center for Philosophy of Science Olesya Bondarenko (KLI): Can Philosophy of Science Successfully Engage w/Interdisciplinary Research?

If you are interested in integrative biosocial research (and whether philosophy of science can do justice to it), check out the recording of my talk from the U of Minnesota conference.

sounds great!
Question: are you engaging with Leah McClimans' work on this? (I ask because we are reading her book this term here in Cambridge HPS)

If interested, here is the video recording of my talk on quantification in the human sciences:
