Causality in the Neuro- and Psychological Sciences (CiNaPS) 2018
University of Antwerp (Belgium), 19-21 September 2018
Causality is one of the key concepts that require clarification if we want to
understand scientific practice. Causal knowledge is useful for prediction and
scientific explanation and is indispensable when we endeavour to intervene in
the world. Causal relations are ubiquitous, but sometimes hard to discover.
This holds for science in general, and for neuroscience and the psychological
sciences in particular.
Questions relating to causality can best be answered in an inter- and
transdisciplinary way, involving researchers from as many scientific
disciplines as possible. This, at least, is the view underlying the ‘Causality
in the Sciences’ (CitS) conference series. Therefore this conference aims to
bring together philosophers and scientists to explore the notion of causality
at the interplay of the neurological and psychological sciences.
Confirmed keynote speakers:
Joanna Moncrieff (University College London)
Lise Marie Andersen (Aarhus University)
Benjamin Straube (Philipps-University Marburg)
Carl F. Craver (Washington University St. Louis)
