Raising awareness on History, Epistemology and Ethics of science

This training course, led by the Institut Curie and the École normale supérieure – PSL, combining philosophical reflection, historical studies and discussions on the ethical issues of scientific knowledge, has become indispensable to all those who will work tomorrow in research or, more generally, in all the professions related to it. It will enable them not only to improve their research approach but also to develop a civic conscience on these issues, and to be better prepared for dialogue with the Society.

To help your choice among the numerous lectures of this training course, we propose an access to all the modules of the four sessions (2016/2017, 2017/2018, 2018/2019, 2019/2020, 2020/2021), sorted by topics: ethics, epistemology, art and science and history of science.
