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.
