Forthcoming event: Boston Colloquium on Philosophy of the Geosciences

Attention Extinct readers! There is a fantastic two-day event coming up on May 5th and 6th. That’s a Friday and a Saturday. It is taking place at Boston University but is fully hybrid. Here is your link to register: https://www.bu.edu/cphs/

Extinct founder Derek Turner will be speaking on day 1, along with recent contributor and friend of the blog Aja Watkins. Another recent contributor and friend of the blog, Federica Bocchi, will be speaking on day 2. They are surrounded by a who’s-who in the philgeo community, including some founding members (Rachel Laudan, Robert Frodeman, Carol Cleland). There is also a good showing from historians of the geosciences, including past Extinct contributors David Sepkoski and Lukas Rieppel. Check it out!
