Description
Philosophy and Theory in Biology is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to exploring the philosophical foundations, theoretical underpinnings, and conceptual frameworks that shape the biological sciences. The journal aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue between philosophers, biologists, and other scholars interested in the profound questions that arise at the intersection of philosophy and biology. It provides a platform for rigorous analysis and critical reflection on the nature of life, evolution, and the methods and assumptions of biological inquiry. Core areas covered include evolutionary theory, genetics, developmental biology, ecology, and systems biology, as well as ethical and social implications of biological research. The journal welcomes submissions that challenge conventional wisdom, offer novel perspectives, and advance our understanding of the complex relationship between philosophy and biology. It aims to bridge the gap between philosophical reflection and empirical research, promoting a more integrated and holistic approach to the study of life. By fostering open access and interdisciplinary exchange, Philosophy and Theory in Biology seeks to stimulate critical thinking and enrich the intellectual landscape of both philosophy and biology. Submissions from scholars across diverse backgrounds and perspectives are actively encouraged.
