Dear All,
it is a pleasure to announce the
Summer School on “Replicability crisis in science?”
University of Padova, Italy, 18-22 September 2023
The school is open to 30 Ph.D or Master students, no fees are required,
but registration is mandatory. Lectures will be delivered in English.
Main Lecturers:
Prof. Giovanni Parmigiani, Department of Data Science, Dana Farber Cancer
Institute, Harvard University, USA (https://scholar.harvard.edu/parmigiani)
Prof. Branden Fitelson, Department of Philosophy and Religion, Northeastern
University, USA (https://cssh.northeastern.edu/faculty/branden-fitelson/)
Course Outline:
The main objective of the Summer School is to offer to a well-motivated
small group of young people starting their scientific research journey an
opportunity for high-level interdisciplinary training on crucial issues
arising from the recent debate concerning the crisis of replicability in
scientific research.
The school will provide a broad and interdisciplinary view, as well as the
tools that may enable individual participants to focus on specific aspects
of replicability that are relevant to their own discipline of interest.
Activities will include both main lectures and lab sessions for Master and
Ph.D. students coming from different countries.
The lectures will offer to participants a set of theoretical and applied
tools to conduct and critically evaluate rigorous research. In workshop
activities, students will have the opportunity to discuss the topics with
both teachers and peers in order to overcome traditional boundaries between
statistics and philosophy and other sciences as well as to stimulate
innovative research hypotheses and international collaborations.
