SUMMARY:New Science - New Risks

TZID:America/New_York
LOCATION:Pittsburgh\, United States
DESCRIPTION:<p>Cases  involving climate change\, epigenetics\, GMOs\, nanotechnology and \nstem-cells have  taught us that various kinds of factor create epistemic\n uncertainty. Knowing  what we do not know is a good thing when we are \nmaking difficult choices and  taking serious risks. How do we and should\n we take risks when the quality and  quantity of information is poor or \nbrittle? How do we and should we make  decisions when our preferences \nare unfixed or unreliable? How do we make  decisions and take risks when\n the classical theories of rational  decision-making are no longer our \nshepherd? The conference will explore these  questions from a range of \nperspectives\, philosophical as well as psychological.</p>\n<p>Questions can be directed to Nils-Eric Sahlin\, <a target="_blank">NIS50@pitt.edu</a> or Karen Kovalchick\, <a target="_blank">rubus@pitt.edu</a>.</p>
