Science continually contributes new models and rethinks old ones. The way inferences are made is constantly being re-evaluated. The practice and achievements of science are both shaped by this process\, so it is useful to understand how models and inferences are made. This conference sets out to investigate the way we employ these tools. Different viewpoints will be examined. \;Discussion will include: the role of the models\; how science shapes our conceptions of models\; how to model the pursuit of scientific knowledge\; the relation between our conception of models and our conception of science\; the comparison of different models in different scientific domains\; models and scientific explanation\; models in the semantic view of theories\; the applicability of mathematical models to the world\; our conceptions of inference in our conceptions of science\; the relation between models and inferences\; inference as a means for acquiring new knowledge.
