We invite submission of an abstract of no more than one page, with explicit reference to the discipline (logic / philosophy of science / history of science), to be sent to president@bslps.be, by June 15. We strongly encourage participants to submit their abstract in English, but any abstract written in one of our three national languages will be considered. Priority will be given to young researchers (PhD students, young postdocs). Notification of acceptance will be made by July 15.
