New Research Project:  ‘Science and Religion in Latin America’

This is  a three-year project that aims to understand  and document research into issues regarding science and religion across Latin America, a region undergoing rapid academic  and economic growth. The intention is also  to stimulate new intellectual enquiry and  education in issues pertinent to science and  religion and to promote international collaboration. www.cyral.org

This project is being conducted by the Ian  Ramsey Centre at Oxford University. Together with the sponsorship of the John Templeton Foundation and the association  of the British Council, the project will benefit with the close collaboration of the Fundación Decyr (Argentina), and the institutes  Cecir (Upaep, Mexico) and Cecrei (Pucsp, Brazil). Specific activities will include:

1) Research into the state of knowledge, resources and scholarship in science and religion in Latin America.

2) Three conferences: 2011 in Mexico City;

2012 in Brazil and 2013 in Oxford.

3) Two books, including a translation into Spanish and Portuguese of the Cambridge Companion to Science and Religion, and a new volume, by Latin American scholars, compiled during the project.

4) Two essay competitions, for junior and senior scholars respectively.

The European Society for the Study of Science and Theology (ESSSAT)

                  invites you to the Fourteenth European Conference on Science and Theology

What is life?

24-29 April 2012, Tartu, Estonia

All of us can accept the challenge and try our own take on this topic: Is life a biological, or philosophical, theological or paleoarcheological, social scientific or psychological issue, or all of it, and many others? Are the best representations of life presented by artists, are the best explanations by biosemioticians? Is life a process of dying slowly, or a prelude to something else?

There will be five plenary lectures, a panel and ample space for short paper discussions .Plenary lectures will be held by Gayle Wolochak, Stuart Kauffman, Bronislaw Szerszynski, Richard Villems and Antje Jackelén. General Assembly will meet on April 27, 14.00-15.00.
