DESCRIPTION:<p>Science\, technology\, and medicine unquestionably have a major impact on our lives. We live with constant technological innovation and scientific discovery\, and this changes the conditions that we live in and the way we understand ourselves and the world we live in. Science\, technology\, and medicine are thus entangled with our values\, our culture\, and our politics\, and they have an important impact on policymaking and action.</p>\n<p>We invite proposals for papers that engage with these issues from a variety of disciplinary and theoretical approaches\, including philosophy of science\, technology\, and medicine\, epistemology\, ethics and political philosophy\, history\, science and technology studies\, policy studies\, and natural and social sciences. We will consider proposals for individual papers\, but also thematic panel sessions and more informal formats. Please feel free to contact us early to discuss potential panel formats at&nbsp\;values@utdallas.edu</a><br><br>We are especially interested and will give preference to proposals that fit this year's target theme: Values in the Science and Practice of Medicine.
