History of Science, History of Text
The seminar examines the various types of documents produced in the context of scholarly practices in order to understand how the shaping of textual forms and inscriptions is part of the scientific activity. The seminar also aims to understand how these works make it possible to better interpret the sources on which historians of science draw to conduct their research.

Philosophy, History and Sociology of Artificial Intelligence
The purpose of this seminar is to position itself at the center of the scientific, epistemological, technological and societal transformations that the developments of artificial intelligence engage. The seminar we propose therefore aims to study AI in its technological / scientific duality, through its historical, philosophical, epistemological, ethical and sociological aspects. In order to understand the modern stakes of this discipline, we will consider it here as defined in its historicity, but also as a scientific tool, tool of knowledge and transformation of knowledge, of understanding, finally as a socio-cultural entity in interaction with its environment, whether it is human or non-human.

Seminar History and Philosophy of Physics (2019-2020)
This seminar is conceived as a place of exchange between historians of physics, philosophers of physics, physicists and students in the disciplines concerned. Although this year's program has no specific theme, it reflects the organizers' interest in the issues that drive us to cross interdisciplinary boundaries: between physics and philosophy, between history and philosophy, between theoretical construction and experience, between physics and other sciences.

Living collections through the prism of the humanities and social sciences
Les « collections vivantes » sont comprises comme des ensembles inventoriés de spécimens en vie, conservés au sein de musées, de muséums ou d’instituts scientifiques. Elles incluent les collections botaniques, zoologiques, ou microbiologiques. À travers une approche anthropologique, historique ou philosophique, le séminaire explorera quelques questions. Comment ont été et sont définies aujourd’hui les collections vivantes ? Par qui et pour qui ? Quelles sont leurs raisons d’être et comment s’articulent-elles à des paradigmes scientifiques ? Quelles valeurs les sous-tendent ? Quelles spécificités leur caractère vivant apporte-t-il en termes de pratique de collecte, de conservation, de recherche, et d’exposition ?

The histories of The National Museum of Natural History -
Research, people, institutions, heritage and teaching
Les commémorations du bicentenaire du Muséum national d’histoire naturelle, en 1993, ont permis de démontrer la validité d’une histoire historienne du Muséum. Depuis, la recherche s’est révélée féconde. Dans un cadre national et international, elle se lie aux développements de tout le champ, de l’histoire naturelle à l’histoire des sciences de l’Homme, dont l’anthropologie et la préhistoire, et met en valeur les ressources archivistiques et patrimoniales du Muséum.Le séminaire « Le Muséum national d’histoire naturelle, objet d’histoire. Recherches, hommes, institutions, patrimoine, enseignement » entend contribuer au partage de la vitalité de ces travaux autour d’un établissement, de ses métiers, de ses réseaux et de ses modèles intellectuels.

Vitalisms - the history of an ambivalence
Cette manifestation appartient à un cycle de quatre journées dont le sous-titre général pourrait être : « Les vitalismes - histoire d'une équivoque ». Comment l’« étiquette » « vitalisme » fonctionne-t-elle dans des contextes historiques entièrement différents, dotés de paradigmes métaphysiques et épistémologiques tout aussi différents et même parfois inconciliables ? Qu'est-ce qui la fait « résister » malgré cela ?

Seminar - Epistemology and methodology
Encounters of French-speaking research in the humanities and social sciences on health
Ce séminaire accueille chaque mois un·e chercheur·e en philosophie ou sciences humaines et sociales travaillant sur la santé afin qu'il·elle présente son travail et expose son regard sur l'objet santé. Organisé de manière à favoriser les échanges entre les différents acteurs, profesionnel·le·s, chercheur·e·s en santé ou tout simplement citoyens engagés, ce séminaire se veut un lieu ouvert de débat contribuant à la mise en place d’une réflexion commune sur la santé, sa nature, ses méthodes et ses enjeux. En mettant en outre l’accent sur les travaux menés en français dans ce domaine, il entend revendiquer l’importance de la francophonie dans ce champ de recherche en pleine expansion, et ainsi favoriser sa reconnaissance et son développement dans l’espace universitaire et public québécois.

The history of sciences, the history of text
As in previous years, we will study: How sources bear the mark of the environments in which they were produced. We will ask the question of how the documents attest knowledge. We will be interested in the history of writing by compilation. We will carry out research on the organization that the actors have given to the recorded knowledge, looking at the parts in which they have structured their texts.

Seminar - Epistemology and methodology
History and Philosophy of Chemistry
The philosophy of chemistry is a little known reflection domain, expanding, opening up new opportunities for reflection on science and technology, often different and complementary of the perspectives opened by the philosophy of physics, biology and mathematics. This seminar will, in particular, be a place for exchanges between historians, philosophers, chemists, scientists from diverse backgrounds, students and anyone interested in the subject. It aims to promote dialogue between philosophers and historians and give voice to different historical and philosophical approaches in respect of their singularities.

This monthly seminar will aim to invite researchers to come and present their work in progress or recently published that address the “Arab mathematics”, understood in a broad sense to be studied not only mathematics itself, but science “mathematized” of the era, such as astronomy, optics and static; Furthermore, we do not restrict themselves to only written in Arabic mathematics, but we can address their writings in other languages extensions, like Latin, Hebrew and Farsi.
