The 17th Annual Cambridge Graduate Conference in Logic and the Philosophy of Mathematics will be held this year, as in previous years, in St. John's College, Cambridge on the 27th and 28th January 2024. The conference is intended as a forum for graduates students who work in formal areas of philosophy to present their work to their peers. 

As such, we welcome papers on any topic in the Philosophy of Mathematics, Logic, Applications of Logic to Epistemology and Metaphysics, Formal Epistemology, Decision Theory or Applications of Formal Methods to the Philosophy of Science. Papers will have respondents, and will be followed by open discussion. Respondents will be selected from members of the Cambridge University Faculty of Philosophy and other philosophy departments in the UK.

Papers should be no longer than 4,000 words, and suitable for a 40 minute presentation. They should also be accompanied by an abstract of no more than 150 words. The paper should be anonymised and suitable for blind refereeing. Please include a separate detachable cover sheet including name, title, institution, and contact details. Submissions are preferred in .doc or .pdf format. They should be e-mailed to [email protected]. Receipt of submission will be confirmed by email. Please note that we cannot accept more than one submission per student.

We adhere to the BPA/SWIP good practice guidelines and encourage submissions from women and other under-represented groups. Moreover, we would like to emphasise that the venue will be completely wheelchair accessible with a large lift and an accessible toilet and service dogs are welcome. Please contact us with any further queries related to accessibility.

The deadline for submissions is 6th November.

We will notify authors of the decision regarding their paper by the start of December. For successful applicants we will cover the cost of accommodation, conference fee and the conference dinner.
