Thank you #PSA2024 Program Chair David Danks for initiating this change in PSA conference submissions and Cambridge University Press for working with us to develop a new policy. @jimweatherall.bsky.social @philsci.bsky.social

📣Announcement 📣 To support best practices for citation in philosophy of science, we've updated our word limit policy to exclude reference sections. Articles are now limited to 9000 words including abstract, footnotes, in-text citations, figures, and tables; reference sections have no word limit.

Program for #PSA2024 is now out on our website. Poster sessions and cognate societies sessions will follow soon. Time to register for the conference — we very much look forward to seeing you in New Orleans in November: site.pheedloop.com/event/psa24/...
