Dear all,
we cordially invite you to the next talk of the APSE lecture series,
delivered by Peter Vickers (Durham University).
Title: The Institute of Ascertaining Scientific Consensus, or, How to
Measure Scientific Community Opinion and Influence People
When/Where: Thursday, June 1^st , 3-5pm, HS 2H, NIG
Abstract:
A solid, international scientific consensus is the best signal humanity
ever gets that a specific scientific statement articulates an
“established scientific fact”. It is …
[View More]thus surprising that there
currently exists no good way to measure the strength of scientific
consensus regarding a specific statement of interest. Indeed, scientists
themselves don’t know when a claim can be called a ‘fact’ (as Ernst Mayr
used to complain, and as one IPCC author recently complained). A good
method for quickly, efficiently assessing mass scientific opinion is
urgently needed, especially given the rise in ‘fake news’ and misleading
information in the public sphere. Perhaps most significantly of all,
recent studies have demonstrated the power of expert-community consensus
information to correct misconceptions of laypersons, and, crucially,
impact upon relevant choices and actions of those laypersons (such as
getting vaccinated against COVID-19). The Institute for Ascertaining
Scientific Consensus (IASC) seeks to become humanity’s premier means for
measuring scientific community opinion on a given statement of interest.
In June 2023 it conducts its first mass survey, targeting 20,000
scientists across 30 different academic institutions.
Best wishes,
Franziska Reinhard (on behalf of the APSE unit)

Dear all,
we cordially invite you to the upcoming talk of the APSE - lecture
series, delivered by Ariane Hanemaayer (Brandon University)
Title: Where it hurts: Making Pain Medicine
When/Where: 25.5., 15-17pm, HS 2H
If you are interested in joining us for dinner/drinks afterwards, write
me an email (sophie.juliane.veigl(a)univie.ac.at)! everyone welcome!
Abstract:
What makes pain problematic? The nature of pain is contested, and over
the 20th century, researchers from biomedical fields …
[View More]as diverse as
surgery, anesthesiology, physiology, and neurology have sought to
develop a unified theory to represent its causes and effects. In the
clinic, the status of pain is subjective. Over the last century, many
efforts have been made to raise awareness of the under-examined aspects
of pain and to objectify it through the standardization of its
measurement. There remains, however, a gap between the knowledge of and
intervention on pain that has troubled the evidence-based medicine
paradigm. In this presentation I explain the nature of this gap as a
result of particular discursive and institutional relations. In
particular, I focus on the rise of clinical pain measurement scales
alongside the professionalization of the subspecialty of pain medicine.
Drawing on material from a broader genealogical project on the
biomedical sciences of pain, I argue that the techniques of pain
management were developed in relation to a particular shift in the
notion of clinical judgment within the medical discourse. I will situate
this knowledge development within the broader societal and institutional
events that rendered pain problematic, focusing on the establishment of
the first pain clinic in the USA and the International Society for the
Study of Pain.
Kind regards,
Sophie Veigl on behalf of the APSE-Unit

Dear all,
together with several people all over the university and Manu Sharma
from our own institute, I am organizing an InterGender – International
Consortium for Interdisciplinary Feminist Research Training course for
PhD and late stage MA students, which will happen in October and is
entitled "Learning to Read Differently".
You can even get 7,5 or 10 ECTS credits for it!
Here's a short description:
Much academic work relies on existing texts and their interpretation. As
scholars, …
[View More]we necessarily build on these knowledges transmitted to us by
others in order to try to better understand power relations and their
modes of action, to form our own arguments based on the texts, to make
sense of certain social phenomena and to contribute to thinking_feeling
about the world. All too often, this process of reading becomes so
normalized that we hardly think about the consequences and premises of
these practices of reading themselves. Therefore, we want to dedicate
this PhD and MA course to the goal of “Learning to Read Differently”.
Throughout the course, we will engage not only with how we read “texts”
as they are commonly understood, but also with how we interpret the
fabric of reality and the situations and phenomena we encounter in our
research and beyond. Together, we want to explore what we choose to read
or not to read, as well as the political implications that arise from
these practices. Thus, the course aims to support participants in
exercising reading practices and research methods that enable them to
critically reflect upon the “standard” practices usually governed by
white euro-anglo-centric academia, to challenge them, and to try out
different approaches.
Deadline for application is June 18, 2023.
We invite all those who are interested to apply, and are happy if you
also widely share this call with others!
All the best,
Flora
