The Seminar on Science and Subjectivity was established in 2018 after a prior period of a few years as a class in the Hovde Seminar series at the Heyman Center. The Seminar continues to follow the format that worked well in that earlier iteration: we all read a book in advance of the session, then we all have something to say about it. In the past we then would all have dinner and continue the conversation. Since Covid we have met by zoom earlier in the day, and then those members who are in the area have come together to continue the discussion over dinner at 6:00 at Faculty House. We have begun to invite authors of our books, and other scholars who are focused on the work we are discussing to join our discussions; regardless, we plan to remain a convivial group of interested and articulate readers willing to delve deeply into the intersection of science and individual subjective experience.
