Logic, Mathematics, and Physics Graduate Conference: Western Ontario, 25-26 June 2020

By Wuthrich

The 20th annual Philosophy of Logic, Mathematics, and Physics Graduate Conference will take place on Thursday-Friday, June 25-26, 2020, at the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario, Canada. We are pleased to announce that James Owen Weatherall (University of California, Irvine) will be giving the keynote address.

Call for Papers:

Graduate students who have not yet defended their PhD thesis are invited to submit papers on any topic in philosophy of logic, philosophy of mathematics, and philosophy of physics. Papers in philosophy of physics will be considered for the Annual Clifton Memorial book prize. The contest will be adjudicated by philosophy of physics faculty members at Western.

Submission Guidelines:

The maximum paper length is 5,000 words, including footnotes and appendices (but not references). If the paper includes tables, figures, or equations, an appropriate number of words should be subtracted from the limit. Papers are to be prepared for anonymous review, and should be accompanied by an abstract (no longer than 300 words). Co-authored papers are not eligible for submission.

Deadline: Papers should be submitted via EasyChair by February 16, 2020 at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lmp2020

Authors of accepted papers will be limited to 30-35 minutes for presentation, followed by a 20-minute period of discussion. The 2020 LMP Conference will follow the 24th Annual Western Philosophy of Physics Conference that will take place on June 22-24, 2020.
