Category
FP7 Project with U.S. partner
Short name and number
SYMOB (219307)
Area
No theme specific
Description
The proposed project presents an original approach, bordering between epistemology and theoretical physics, to address those philosophical issues. Such an approach adopts both an instrumentalist conception of theories and a constructivist conception of knowledge, in which experimental facts and theoretical models are co-constituted through scientific practice.
