Robert Boyle Winter School

These lectures are the ones to attend if you want to really know what makes Robert Boyle tick.

Very enjoyable day. Second year coming. Great food for thought.

Very stimulating day spent at the Robert Boyle Winter School discussing Mind and Matter from a philosophical and physical perspective! Thanks to the organisers and the academics for such insights!

The RB Summer & Winter Schools are highlights of my year, every year. The range of topics is always interesting. As a non-scientist, non-historian who loves to think, enquire & learn, the RB Schools provide a wonderful opportunity to learn from top-class thinkers & educators. Thank you CALMAST for these bi-annual intellectual treats.

It was fun to argue internally with Descartes’s dualism and his mind-machine view, only to realise how different the context was 400 years before the invention of LLMs. The Winter School offered a great opportunity to hear brilliant speakers and thinkers and engage with timeless questions.

Mind-opening presentation of contemporary issues in science presented in a manner that opens scientific thought to non-scientists and scientists alike. Highly recommended attendance at future events.

Would you like to learn more about the Irishman who brought law and order to world science and chemistry? Then come to the Robert Boyle Schools next outing.

What a privilege to take time out to think about the brain. Expertly weaved insights that drew us through the centuries, underpinned by Boyle’s evident curiosity, right up to the present day & beyond. This immersive day leaves me thinking!!! Thank you
