Philosophers have not only argued that research aims and practices are constrained by ethical values\, but that they are irreducibly aesthetic (Turner 2019)\, and often practical (Parker 2020\, Watkins 2024). From this pluralism\, two problems arise &ndash\; it is unclear in what sense science is a distinctly epistemic practice\, and it is unclear how epistemic aims and values are properly insulated from trade-offs. Toward a solution\, I sketch an understanding of scientific agency shaped by insights from the philosophy of games (Nguyen 2020). The proposed agency structures the practical activity of researchers such that acknowledged forms of values pluralism hold while maintaining a special place for epistemic aims.</p>\n\n<p>This talk will be available online:</p>\n<p>Zoom: <a data-cke-saved-href="https://pitt.zoom.us/j/98622170239">https://pitt.zoom.us/j/98622170239</a></p>\n<p>YouTube: <a  target="_blank"   data-cke-saved-href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg</a></p>
