The Valencia Philosophy Lab (https://vlclab.blogs.uv.es) invites researchers working in areas within the remit of the group to send their expression of interest, together with their CV and a very brief description of their projected research, to the group’s coordinator, Marc Artiga (marc.artiga@uv.es), to solicit support before 12 January 2022.

 The new reading group on Rationality and Intersubjectivity will kick off on Wednesday 17 from 15:00 to 16:30. The RG will run mostly biweekly and there will be three interconnected clusters of topics: Action explanation, Sense/concept individuation and Mental Files.
