We had a great time at our symposium “Self-assembly and self-organisation in living systems” at #EPSA25. Here some pics from our talks from Gry Oftedal and @jietongx.bsky.social @sanderoest.bsky.social @frabellazzi.bsky.social and Bendik Hellenic-Aaby. 🦋 @epsaphilsci.bsky.social @erc.europa.eu

If you are in Porto for the #ISHPSSB, look out for our team presenting different works on self-assembly&self-organisation! Interesting talks from @sanderoest.bsky.social @jietongx.bsky.social and Bendik Hellem-Aaby 🦋 @erc.europa.eu @uio.no ishpssb2025.icbas.up.pt

We just concluded our second year project meeting in Copenhagen! It was a great opportunity to get feedback on our drafts and get to know a new project member (details soon). Ahead a summer of conferences and holidays (1/2) 🗣️⛵️ @erc.europa.eu #philsky

Our research assistant Jietong Xu is going to start the coolest PhD program at #KIT where she will work on the relationship between the simulations/computer models and target systems in the subproject “Philosophical Issues of Multiscale Modeling and AI” in the PHILETAS group 🎉 @jietongx.bsky.social

It also included my last talk at UiO as full time postdoc and I feel very grateful to have been part of this community this year 💙🦋 @assemblinglife.bsky.social @uio.no #philsky

One year ago we started a small online reading group on functions and now we have our first workshop on biological functions! Proud of the growing functions in philosophy network 💙 thanks to best co-organiser @harrif.bsky.social and @assemblinglife.bsky.social @leverhulme.ac.uk #philsky

This week we are hosting a workshop on Biological functions organised by @frabellazzi.bsky.social and @harrif.bsky.social. Check out the program and get in touch if you want to attend remotely 🦋 www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/englis... In collaboration with @leverhulme.ac.uk #philsky

Last week us&CPS organised a great workshop on “ScaM: scales and measurement in the sciences”. We kicked off with some group work and ended up with a panel discussion. Thanks to all the attendees and speakers! @federicabocchi.bsky.social @beccajackson.bsky.social @uio.no

Thanks, @frabellazzi.bsky.social, for co-organizing a great multidisciplinary workshop on Scale and Measurement at the Center for Philosophy and the Sciences at the University of Oslo. Here's a picture from @beccajackson.bsky.social 's talk on the Apgar Score and "Construct Realization".

Exciting week of #AssemblingLife events ahead: 📖 Reading group on AssemblingLife&Medicine with Sara Green, Rebecca Jackson and Harriet Fagerberg 🗣️ Science Colloquium with Sara Green 📐📏 ScaM workshop organised with #CPS www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/englis...

One of the last outputs of #Metascience has just been published! Here an article with our take on “Unification Principles for Biochemical Kinds” for the the edited volume “Special Objects” ⤵️ @ttahko.bsky.social #philsky #philbio philpapers.org/rec/BELUPF

Another #AssemblingLife talk this week at the CPS Lunch time seminar. This time @frabellazzi.bsky.social was applying comparative philosophy of science to the problem of biochemical structure. 🦋 #philsky

Today our postdoc Bendik Hellem-Aaby gave a fantastic talk on the interplay between self-organisation and natural selection at the CPS LunchTime seminar 🦋 www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/englis...

The team is growing - last month we welcomed our new PhD researcher Hilde Langengen Teigen. Hilde will explore the explanatory role and scope of the predictive processing framework by identifying self-assembly processes in the brain in relation to brain function. 🦋 www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/englis...

Thanks to everyone that applied for our #postdoc and #researcher positions! It is great to see such good research proposals and stimulating ideas on #selfassembly and #selforganization 🦋

I'm trying to put together a history and philosophy of biology and medicine starter pack! Let me know who to add, including if that is you! go.bsky.app/UCbEmtj

Last days to apply for the #postdocs in @assemblinglife.bsky.social at UiO! It is a great project in a fantastic team! 🦋 #philjobs www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/om/org...

New #AssemblingLife article on the Metaphysics of Pregnancy now out on #PhilosophyCompass. Embryogenesis is often mentioned as a case of self-organisation and in mammals it is intrinsically linked to pregnancy, so this article explores how we can think about pregnancy in the first place. 🦋 #philsky

We are hiring one 3yr post doc and one 2yr researcher to work on philosophy of science in the AssemblingLife project! Please distribute to possible applicants! Deadline: Feb 28 www.jobbnorge.no/en/available...

The @AssemblingLife project is on Bluesky! Excited to share our activities and work on philosophy of self-assembly and self-organization in living systems. Follow us here for updates on project research and events, and have a look at our website: www.hf.uio.no/ifikk/englis...
