The main objective of this event is to clarify the relationship between physics and philosophy. Another aim is to uncover the philosophical foundations of physical theories, introduce conceptual problems, and develop discussion skills on these topics. Therefore, philosophical theories proposed in areas such as space, time, quantum mechanics, matter-energy, the mathematical structure of nature, and the nature of physical laws will be addressed from both historical and contemporary perspectives.
