Main content
Employees and affiliated researchers at the SVT are members of the research group Theory of Science, which organizes regular internal seminars where members and invited guests present issues that are relevant to the research group.
The seminars are an arena for discussing research group members' own research from the early idea stage to finished work. It is also possible to present other people's research that relates to the theory of science.
Responsible staff member for the internal seminars in spring 2026 is Head of Centre, Rasmus Slaattelid.
