EMRC Conference
Dear all,
The 2nd EMRC Conference in Salzburg is now over, and we are delighted by both the quality of the talks and the fact that so many of you were able to join us in Salzburg.
The next EMRC Conference is planned for 2028. If you are interested in hosting the conference (in collaboration with the EMRC team), please reply to this email with a brief description of what you would like to do, where you would like to host the conference, and how you would plan to fund and organize it.
The EMRC team will make a decision before the end of the year.
Best wishes,
Leo Menges (in the name of the EMRC team)

Deadline PhD applications Stockholm Oct 15
Dear all,
If you have promising students who would like to do a PhD on responsibility-related topics in Stockholm, they might consider applying to our PhD program. In case they have missed the call, it closes on Thursday, October 15.
Students admitted are salaried for four years (subject to satisfactory progress) with possible extension of up to one year for teaching and other departmental duties.
Qualification requirements, in brief: A completed second-cycle (advanced) degree, or completed courses equivalent to at least 240 higher education credits. At least 60 credits must be in the second cycle, of which at least 30 credits must be in practical philosophy, including an MA thesis. These requirements can also be met by those who have acquired essentially equivalent competence.
For full requirements, selection criteria, and access to the application system, see https://su.varbi.com/en/what:job/jobID:959485/where:4/
I’d be grateful if you could pass this on.
Best,
Gunnar
