The core responsibilities of the professorship include wide-ranging teaching and internationally visible research in the field of the history of philosophy. One research focus must fall within the period, roughly, from Hobbes to Hegel (inclusive). The successful candidate should conduct outstanding research that is relevant to systematic questions and arguments in contemporary philosophy and relates to central themes in theoretical or practical philosophy. A willingness to reflect critically on the methods and canon of the history of philosophy is desirable. A depth of experience in academic teaching is essential, as is the ability and willingness to cover a wide area within the history of philosophy in a way that is appealing to students. Teaching and supervision will be conducted in German and English. If the successful candidate is not already able to teach and supervise in German, the necessary language skills should be acquired within two years. The Institute of Philosophy emphasizes close collaboration across professorships and research areas. Accordingly, candidates should demonstrate a cooperative approach and interest in intra- and interdisciplinary collaboration. Experience in securing external funding and in managing research projects is also desirable. The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to the academic administration of the Institute. Depending on qualifications, the successful candidate will be appointed at the level of assistant professorship with tenure track, associate professorship, or full professorship. To be considered for a full or associate professorship, candidates must have a habilitation or else demonstrate equivalent achievement. The requirements for appointment to an assistant professorship with tenure track are an above-average doctoral thesis and an advanced habilitation project or equivalent achievement. Appointment to an assistant professorship with tenure track is initially for four years and can be extended for a further two years. Subject to a successful evaluation, the position may then be converted into an associate professorship and made permanent. The University of Bern is committed to equal opportunities and the promotion of diversity in employment. In particular, it strives to increase the number of women in senior academic positions and welcomes applications from people with disabilities, People of Color, and people who, in the Swiss context, are from ethnic minority backgrounds.

It is centered around the question of whether philosophy is best done from the philosophical armchair or whether it can and should be done using empirical methods. The conference is focused on the extent to which the emergence of naturalistic approaches and of experimental philosophy ("X-Phi") pose a problem to 'traditional' armchair methods (e.g. consulting intuitions, conceptual analysis, reflective equilibrium, conceptual engineering). We are interested both in work that focuses on individual methods or on the relations between them (e.g. their compatibility). We aim to bring together early career and advanced researchers in order to discuss questions such as: * What is the role of intuition in philosophy? * What is the role of _a priori_ knowledge in philosophy? * What is the role of X-Phi in philosophy? * What is the role of conceptual analysis in philosophy? * What is the role of conceptual engineering in philosophy? * What is the role of linguistic and conceptual competence in philosophy? * What is the role of formal methods in philosophy? * Is philosophy importantly distinct from other sciences? * How can advocates of armchair methods best respond to the challenges raised by X-Phi? * Are armchair philosophy and X-Phi reconcilable? * Considering the methodological discussions listed above, are professional philosophers epistemically better positioned for answering philosophical questions than lay people? E.g. Do they have better conceptual competence? Are they expert intuiters? We welcome submissions that apply these methodological issues to other philosophical debates as case studies. If you wish to align your talk with the WFAP's reading circle in preparation for the conference, feel free to check out our readings here [5]. You can take a look at our past graduate conferences here [6] . We look forward to your submissions!

There is a multitude of voices, some focussing on historical accounts, others connecting closely to the most recent psychological research; some scholars work in a phenomenological tradition, others use methods of analytic philosophy. Topics also vary widely, from epistemic problems in accessing the mental life of others to the significance of empathy for moral agency; from embodiment and interactionism about empathy to evolutionary perspectives or the psychopathology of empathy. There are also closely related phenomena, such as imagination, sympathy, care, fellow-feeling, or interpersonal understanding, which relate in numerous possible ways to empathy research. We invite abstracts (up to 500 words) for papers to be presented at a ZEMO online workshop on _New Perspectives in the Philosophy of Empathy_ in autumn 2026 (exact date tbd together with all participants). The workshop has an inclusive approach, inviting contributions from all relevant areas and philosophical traditions. The main purpose is to create a forum for new voices - emerging scholars - and to enable cross-fertilisation between different contexts of debate. The workshop is organised by Thomas Schramme [8] (Liverpool) in close collaboration with Michael Kühler [9] (Dortmund), co-editor of the _Journal for Ethics and Moral Philosophy [10] _(Zeitschrift für Ethik und Moralphilosophie, ZEMO), an academic journal that publishes articles in German and English. The workshop is intended to serve as a starting point for a corresponding topical collection published in ZEMO. The submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the organisers, and the authors of the selected abstracts will be invited to submit a draft paper. All draft papers will be pre-circulated to participants and will therefore need to be ready a few weeks before the event (exact date tbd). All draft papers will then be discussed in depth at the online workshop. The aim is to provide constructive feedback and suggestions for revising the papers. The revised papers will then be subjected to the journal's regular peer review process and, if accepted, published as part of the topical collection. The deadline for submission of abstracts (up to 500 words) is 31 March 2026 Please send your abstract to the following email addresses: T.Schramme(a)liverpool.ac.uk and michael.kuehler(a)fh-dortmund.de.

Trust and cooperation have become front and center issues in today's world.

Zum Verursacherprinzip in der Medizin Mit Beiträgen von Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf, Wolfram Henn, Stefan Huster, Sabine Salloch und Amelie Wuppermann Wer trägt die Lasten, wenn individuelle Lebensstilentscheidungen Gesundheitskosten erzeugen? Sollte das Bereitstellen medizinischer Versorgung auch daran gekoppelt werden, wie gut wir jeweils unsere eigene Gesundheit fördern? Und wer trägt die Verantwortung bei systemisch verursachten Behandlungsfehlern zum Schaden von Patient*innen? In vielen Lebensbereichen gilt das Verursacherprinzip: Wer die Handlung ausführt, trägt auch die Verantwortung für die damit verbundenen Folgen. In der Medizin und Gesundheitsversorgung wird jedoch überwiegend die hippokratische Auffassung vertreten, dass ärztliche Hilfe bedingungslos gewährt werden muss. Zugleich ist die Fehlerkultur im Umgang mit ärztlichen Behandlungsfehlern vielfach unzureichend ausgeprägt. Der Versuch, das Verursacherprinzip in die Prävention und Gesundheitsversorgung zu implementieren, resultiert regelmäßig in kontroversen Diskussionen. Das zeigt sich an Debatten etwa zu Nichtraucherprämien oder bei der Kostenübernahme von Abnehmspritzen. Das Ethik-Forum des DRZE eröffnet Perspektiven von Autor*innen und Herausgeber*innen des 2025 bei Duncker & Humblot erschienenen Sammelbandes „Selber schuld? Zum Verursacherprinzip in der Medizin". Die Beiträge dieser ausgewählten Expert*innen aus unterschiedlichen Fachbereichen laden dazu ein, sich an diesem Diskurs zu beteiligen.

The conference will take place on 25-26 June 2026 in Munich and will bring together leading philosophers to explore foundational questions in the epistemology of medicine. Please register on the homepage for participation: https://www.philosophie.lmu.de/mcmp/en/latest-news/events-overview/event/th… For more information see below. We hope to see you there in June! ------ The Epistemology of Medicine 25-26 June 2026 Carl Friedrich von Siemens Foundation Südliches Schlossrondell 23, 80638 Munich, Germany Rationale: This international conference brings together leading philosophers to explore foundational questions in the epistemology of medicine. How do we generate, evaluate, and integrate knowledge in medical science and practice--especially in an era shaped by big data, advanced statistics, and artificial intelligence? By examining the nature of evidence, causal reasoning, and explanatory models in health and healthcare, the event aims to clarify how different sources of knowledge can be combined to guide effective medical decision-making and policy. Through interdisciplinary dialogue, The Epistemology of Medicine seeks to advance philosophical understanding while contributing to the broader goals of improving patient care and promoting societal well-being.

However, it is becoming increasingly clear that neural computation differs fundamentally from classical computation. Key aspects of what it means to compute in a neural context are under debate. For example, to what extent is neural computation medium-independent, or is it tied to the biological substrate of the brain? What is the status of deep learning models in computational neuroscience? What kind of models are they--engineering or scientific--and how do they explain neural phenomena? How does neural computation relate to, or differ from, analog and digital computation as understood in traditional computer science? This workshop brings together philosophers and researchers from other fields to address these questions and develop a clearer understanding of computation in neural systems. List of Speakers: * Johannes Brinz (University of Osnabrück) * Adrien Doerig (FU Berlin) * Frances Egan (Rutgers University) * Olivia Guest (Radboud University) * Gualtiero Piccinini (University of Missouri) * Katja Seeliger (Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg) * Oron Shagrir (University of Jerusalem) Submission: We invite submissions of abstracts (max. 500 words) for presentation prepared for blind review.
