The Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy invites participation for the following event:

Evidence, Interference, and Risk
MCMP, LMU Munich
March 31- April 2, 2016


Methodological issues emerging in the practice of risk prevention and  management in diverse domains are strictly related to philosophical and theoretical problems such as the foundations of statistics and probability, scientific inference and discovery, as well as various accounts of evidence and evidence amalgamation. The conference aims at investigating such interplay and to foster reciprocal inspiration among philosophers and scholars of diverse disciplines from the natural and social sciences, e.g. economics, history, law, environmental studies, climate science, medicine, epidemiology, and in particular pharmacology. 

Dates: March 31- April 2, 2016
