The Centre for Logic and Philosophy of Science (CLPS) of the
Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) will host its fifth
Masterclass in the Philosophy of Mathematical Practices on
June, 21-23 with Jean Paul Van Bendegem (CLPS, VUB).
We intend the masterclass to be a fully interactive in
person event, with the twofold objective to understand in
depth the materials presented in the lectures, and to
provide early career researchers (PhD students and postdocs)
with an opportunity to discuss their ongoing work in a
helpful and constructive environment. The lectures by Jean
Paul Van Bendegem will take place in the mornings, and will
be followed by afternoon sessions with presentations by
early career researchers in the Philosophy of Mathematical
Practices. The exact titles of the lectures will be
communicated at a later stage.
