SRPoiSE Session: Engaging science with philosophy: Case studies, empirical data, and reflections on collaborations between philosophers and scientists

Session Information

The Consortium for Socially Relevant Philosophy of/in Science and Engineering Session. Recent years have seen increasing engagement between philosophers of science and researchers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Several philosophers have explicitly demonstrated the philosophical, scientific, and social benefits of such engagement. However, most philosophers of science are not trained how to collaborate with scientists or engineers. In other words, we currently lack in-depth, actionable, and transferable knowledge for making these collaborations work. This session helps to address this gap by offering case studies and reflections from philosophers "in the trenches" with STEM researchers, as well as presenting new empirical data on scientists' and engineers' experiences collaborating with philosophers.
