The subject of the seminar alternates between questions in the philosophy of physics and questions in the philosophy of life sciences.
The seminar also provides a framework for the work of DEA and doctoral students. It aims to publish the most interesting contributions.
Some interdisciplinary meetings bring together scientific contributions from the disciplines involved and from specialists in the philosophy of science.
