Details

The 2025 LanCog Summer Metaphysics Workshop will be an intensive, three day workshop on metaphysics, very broadly construed, and will feature leading scholars from around the world.

Attendance is open to all who are interested, but anyone who is planning to attend should register for the workshop, so that the organizers can make sure there is enough coffee.

The 2025 LSMW will be an in-person event. There will, unfortunately, be no way to attend remotely.
