By Invitation only

What is (scientific) “progress” and how does it come to pass? Participants are invited to explore the “Spirit of Alpbach” by critically examining scientific change and the forces that drive or hinder it. Through discussions on paradigms, discovery, and the dynamics of new ideas, a creative environment to question the status quo in science and society is framed. The seminar aims to explain the making of the new through a philosophy of change.
