TITLE: The Pursuitworthiness of Experiments Across the Sciences

SUBMISSIONS PERIOD: 1 November 2024 until 30 April 2025 (11:59pm GMT).

SYNOPSIS: The concept of pursuitworthiness has garnered considerable attention in the philosophy of science in recent years. However, philosophical reflections on the pursuitworthiness of scientific research have almost exclusively focused on theories. This topical collection will put discussions of the pursuitworthiness of experiments on the agenda of general philosophy of science and the philosophies of the special sciences. It will bring together contributions addressing experiments across the sciences, from the physical and chemical sciences to the life, biomedical, and cognitive sciences, as well as the social sciences.

AUTHOR INSTRUCTIONS: Please submit your contribution (max. 15.000 words) by examining and complying with the editorial guidelines of the European Journal for Philosophy of Science. To submit a paper, you have to select the topical collection in the first drop-down menu when you create a submission (Select Article Type > TC: The Pursuitworthiness of Experiments Across the Sciences).
