DESCRIPTION:<p>On 13 April 2026\, we will host a&nbsp\;graduate conference&nbsp\;on philosophy of physics at&nbsp\;Balliol College&nbsp\;at the&nbsp\;University of Oxford. This comes in a series of philosophy of physics graduate conferences hosted by the BLOC (Bristol-London-Oxford-Cambridge) group.&nbsp\; Our conference will be&nbsp\; a supportive and casual setting to discuss works in progress with other graduate students. In hosting this conference\, we hope to continue fostering the graduate philosophy of physics community.</p>\n<p>We invite submissions from&nbsp\;graduate students&nbsp\;working in any area of the philosophy of physics\, broadly construed. Topics may include (but are not limited to):</p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Quantum mechanics</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Spacetime</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Statistical mechanics and thermodynamics</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Quantum field theory</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Astrophysics and cosmology</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>The social epistemology of physics</p>\n</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We aim to have a commentary by a member of faculty on each talk\, before the Q&amp\;A.</p>\n<p><strong>Submissions guidelines:</strong></p>\n<p>To apply\, please submit your title and abstract of up to 500 words (excluding references)&nbsp\;by&nbsp\;15 December 202 to&nbsp\;this google form:</p>\n<p><u><a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4prdK31K3xmDQX7iqroAQL754g2vR8dF1U87fLtDIewzTrQ/viewform">https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4prdK31K3xmDQX7iqroAQL754g2vR8dF1U87fLtDIewzTrQ/viewform</a></u></p>\n<p>We aim to notify speakers of our decisions by&nbsp\;15 January 2026.</p>\n<p>Submissions should be suitable for a&nbsp\;30&nbsp\;minute presentation followed by&nbsp\;30&nbsp\;minutes of discussion.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>We especially welcome submissions from graduate students of traditionally excluded or marginalized communities and those studying at UK institutions.</p>
