Young Researchers Days in Logic, History and Philosophy of Science IX
15 & 16 December 2025
Museumzaal (MSI 02.08), KU Leuven, Erasmusplein 2, 3000 Leuven
Every two years, the National Committee for Logic, History and Philosophy of Science (NCLHPhS) organize the Young Researchers Days. Through open call proposals, we typically invite about 20 young researchers working in Belgium in these three fields, to present their work and to engage in communal question rounds. This edition is already the eighth instalment of this interdisciplinary meeting of young researchers in the fields of logic, history and philosophy of science. Below you can learn more about the organising societies and their goals.
National Committee for Logic, History and Philosophy of Science
The mission of the National Committee, as stipulated in the Royal Decree of 2 April 1979, is to promote and coordinate research activities on Logic, History and Philosophy of Science in Belgium, and to secure the international representation of Belgian scholarship in the International Council of Scientific Unions.

To coordinate Belgian scholarship by setting up collaborations and joint projects with other institutions
To promote the integration of historical and philosophical studies of science
Tpromote general interest in the history of (Belgian) science, and to disseminate the results of contemporary scholarship to a wider audience
