There is a growing body of conceptual research from both philosophers and scientists emerging on topics related to replication and reproducibility. This group will meet in collaboration with the Center Discussion Group of the Minnesota Center for Philosophy of Science to work through a new paper approximately every other week during the semester. Faculty, postdocs, and graduate students from all disciplinary backgrounds are welcome to participate.
