Conference Information

This interdisciplinary conference seeks to explore the interplay between human, ethical, social, cultural, and political values, on the one hand, and science, technology, engineering, and medical research and practice, on the other hand. We invite presentations that seek not only to understand how values and science have and do influence one another, but also how they must and should influence one another (as well as types of influence that should be avoided). The scope of this conference also includes presentations that explore the relationship between science and the public, the relationship between science and social justice, the interaction of science and cultural production, and historical perspectives on all of these topics. The VMST conference ultimately seeks to promote ethically responsible and socially beneficial scientific research and technological innovation, and critical reflection about and assessments of the influence of science, technology, and medicine on our values, culture, practices, and worldviews.
