Upcoming Events

There are two small, philosophy of biology conferences coming up, both of which are accepting submissions. The first is hosted by the Center for Philosophy of Biology at Duke University:

"Chance in Evolution"
April 6-8, 2007

Invited speakers include:
Richard Lewontin (Harvard)
Roberta Millstein (UC Davis)
John Beatty (University of British Columbia) and
Robert Brandon (Duke)

The conference is being organized by the Center's post doc, Chris Haufe, and he is accepting submissions until 1 March. Go here to see what's what.

The second conference follows on the heels of Duke's, and is the 22nd Regional Conference on the History and Philosophy of Science on microbial evolution at the University of Colorado, Boulder:

"Moving Beyond Darwin: The New Evolution"
April 13-15, 2007

Invited speakers include:
John Dupré (University of Exeter)
Jan Sapp (York University) and
Norm Pace (University of Colorado)

Abtract and paper submissions are being accepted through 6 March by Carol Cleland in the Department of Philosophy at Colorado. Go here to see what's what.

Looks like I'll submit to the Duke conference given that I've been thinking a lot about chance in evolution recently.

Rob,

Good luck with the Duke paper. I'm planning to attend the conference (though not submitting)with some others from UW so hopefully I'll get a chance to see you there. I also saw that I'm on your blog links on the site. Thanks for the plug.

All the best,

John
