final CfP: CiNaPS 2018: Causality in the Neuro- and Psychological Sciences | deadline 15th May
deadline for submission of abstracts (500 words): 15th May 2018 <br> <br>apologies for cross-posting <br> <br> <br> <br>Call for papers: <br> <br>CiNaPS 2018: Causality in the Neuro- and Psychological Sciences <br> <br>19th-21st September 2018, Centre for Philosophical Psychology, University of <br>Antwerp, Belgium <br> <br>Part of the Causality in the Sciences (CitS) conference series <br> <br>website: https://www.uantwerpen.be/en/conferences/cinaps-2018/ <br> <br>contact: cinaps2018@uantwerpen.be <br> <br> <br>Keynote speakers <br> <br>Lise Marie Andersen (Aarhus university) <br> <br>Carl Craver (Washington University in St. Louis) <br> <br>Joanna Moncrieff (University College London) <br> <br>Benjamin Straube (Philipps-University Marburg) <br> <br> <br> <br>CFP <br> <br>Causality is one of the key concepts that require clarification if we want to <br>understand scientific practice. Causal knowledge is useful for prediction and <br>scientific explanation and is indispensable when we endeavour to intervene in <br>the world. Causal relations are ubiquitous, but sometimes hard to discover. <br>This holds for science in general, and for neuroscience and the psychological <br>sciences in particular. <br> <br>Questions relating to causality can best be answered in an inter- and <br>transdisciplinary way, involving researchers from as many scientific <br>disciplines as possible. This, at least, is the view underlying the <br>‘Causality in the Sciences’ (CitS) conference series. Therefore this <br>conference aims to bring together philosophers and scientists to explore the <br>notion of causality at the interplay of the neurological and psychological <br>sciences. We invite submissions on a wide range of topics, including: <br> <br>- The nature of causality in the neuro- and psychological sciences <br>- The methods used to test for causal relations in these disciplines <br>- The roles of evidence and theory in grounding causal claims in the <br>neuro- and psychological sciences <br>- Empirical (cognitive, neurological, …) studies into actual causal <br>reasoning <br>- What philosophers can learn from neuro- and psychological <br>scientists’ perspectives on causality, and vice versa <br>- Causal modeling (including machine learning and AI) in relation to <br>the neurological and psychological sciences <br>- The causal efficacy of psychiatric drugs and their relation to <br>non-pharmaceutical therapies <br>- The relation between the topics of causation and of extended/ <br>embodied/ situated/ enactive/… cognition <br>- The relation between neurological causation and causality in the <br>psychological sciences <br>- The (im)possibility of inter-level causal relations in relation to <br>these sciences <br>- Causality as it relates to reduction and other inter-theoretic <br>relations <br> <br>Submissions on other but related topics are welcome too, provided they engage <br>with both causality and the neuro- and/or psychological sciences. Abstracts <br>should be limited to 500 words, they must be anonymous and should be submitted <br>via Easychair: <br> <br>https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cinaps2018 <br> <br>No full papers are required. <br> <br> <br> <br>Dates <br> <br>15th May 2018: deadline for submissions (500 words abstract; no full papers <br>required) <br> <br>15th June 2018: notification of acceptance <br> <br>15th August 2018: deadline for early bird registration <br> <br>19th-21st September 2018: conference <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
