The PLM Master Classes offer around a dozen research students the opportunity to present their work in a collaborative and friendly atmosphere under the supervision of a leading academic in their field. The Second PLM Master Class will be held at CLLAM, Stockholm University on June 7-8, 2015. The master philosopher will be David Chalmers (NYU/ANU), who will end the master class by giving an open lecture. Philosophy students are welcome to participate in all sessions.
