Book launch for “Methods in the Philosophy of Science: a user’s guide”. Ftf in Exeter and online on the 29th of Sept feat Sophie Veigl, Kerry McKenzie, Hasok Chang, and me. It should be fun! (the book will be open access in July, contact me in the meantime) www.exeter.ac.uk/events/detai... #philsci

🎉 can’t wait to dig into this book - and to add it to my syllabus for philosophers-to-be. The glimpses I’ve seen are full of exciting ideas, and I’m sure the full thing is even richer. #sts #philsci

🙌 to @adrian-currie.bsky.social and @phieveigl.bsky.social for pulling this into existence

Really flattered & more than 6x overbooked for my last seminar at @univie.ac.at
I‘ll be leaving in august because UG-Novelle 2021/#Kettenvertragsregelung makes it impossible to stay - doesn‘t seem very efficient that folks who publish loads, deliver great teaching etc can’t stay at an institution

✨Really excited how well my students did in their exams✨ what changed - two times during each lecture (90mins), I gave them a question to discuss that would be „like“ an exam question - this prepped them well for how I ask questions & what I want to hear 💁🏼‍♀️

The far-right FPÖ supposedly wants to restrict ENG in academic research & make GER the sole research language in AT. Nothing says commitment to excellence like isolating Austrian science from the global community. Tell me you don’t care about scientific progress w/o telling me… 🫣 #ScienceSkepticism

About last night at @sciball.bsky.social
Here‘s a link to my ambassadorial message www.wissenschaftsball.at/sophie-julia...

Humor in Philosophy/Academia. Why do ppl laugh at really bad „jokes“ during talks?
- making the best of a situation
- shared laughter has its own worth
- find it actually funny

And here, together with @phieveigl.bsky.social, we put the ENCODE project in the context of attempts to conceptualize the genome. I share the frustration quoted in the condensates essay with viewing genomes in purely disembodied-informational terms. 4/4 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Super excited die erste Season von #AnDerQuelle dem Podcast der @univie.ac.at zu closen. Erkenntnistheorie, Wrestling & alles dazwischen.
