We often encounter art and science as two distinct and clearly separate spheres. How much sense does this separation make? And does it really exist at all?

The exhibition "Curiosity Unbound" explores the spheres of art and science, curated by an artist and 8 researchers from the ZiF cooperation group "Volcanoes, Climate and History"

Evidence is good. More evidence is better. This seems self-evident and yet it could be wrong or at least too simple. This is how Liam Mannix summarizes a result of the ZiF research group "The Epistemology of Evidence-Based Policy: How Philosophy Can Facilitate the Science-Policy Interface" in his newsletter Examine. From February to June 2023, the interdisciplinary group with fellows from philosophy, law, ecosystem research, epidemiology and biology at ZiF researched how politicians deal with scientific findings - and why it is sometimes so difficult for science to get its evidence heard. The group's final conference took place at the ZiF in December.
