Logic and the Empirical Sciences

The study of logic in relation to empirical science has long been central to understanding scientific reasoning, theory formation, and knowledge projection. This workshop aims to explore the intersection of formal and philosophical approaches to the sciences, focusing on the principles, methods, and conceptual foundations that guide empirical inquiry. Topics such as induction, continuity, natural classes, projectability, scientific realism, pessimistic induction, and structural realism illustrate the deep connections between logical analysis and the philosophy of science.

This workshop seeks to foster dialogue across disciplines by examining both formal tools and conceptual frameworks that clarify the structure, limits, and justification of scientific knowledge.
