History and Philosophy of Science
The History and Philosophy of Science Research Group is an interdisciplinary community of scholars in the history and philosophy of science (HPS) including both faculty and graduate students. Members belong to the Faculties of Arts, Science, and Medicine, as well as Mount Royal University. First established in 1997, the Group's objective is to promote individual and collaborative research in HPS, and establish a network of HPS scholars at the University of Calgary. The Group meets at least once a month to discuss recent work in HPS, discuss members' own work, or host visiting scholars.
