The ERC-funded MODEL TRANSFER will provide a comprehensive philosophical investigation of the phenomenon of #ModelTransfer, its challenges, and its implications for scientific progress by combining approaches from philosophy and the history of science with computational methods.
The MODEL TRANSFER team has decided to keep this account inactive until further notice as we focus our efforts on project activities over on Bluesky. Follow us here: bsky.app/profile/modeltransf…
Happy New Year from #ModelTransfer!
In 2025, we’re looking forward to:
🤝 Collaborating with amazing people
🎓 Welcoming new team members
📄 Publishing new papers (some already accepted!)
📚 Continuing our Digital Methods Reading Group
🎤 Presenting at inspiring workshops & conferences (in the coming months: in Nice, Vienna, Erlangen, California)
💡 Organizing our events with the focus on digital methods in the history & philosophy of economics
#ERCStGr @ERC_Research
We wrapped up the year at Hannover’s Christmas market✨🎄
2024 was crucial for advancing the methodological and conceptual basis of our research. In 2025, we’ll build on this progress, share findings & welcome new team members. Stay tuned!

Today in our Digital Methods group we discussed data cleaning strategies in DH based on code examples and notes provided by @EugenioPetrovi1! It was an extremely interesting session with many practical takeaways and we are very grateful to Eugenio for sharing his experience.
👇
You can check out his latest research, in which the data cleaning issues arose in the context of:

👉Check out the July 2014 special issue of @themonist Models and Simulations, edited by Barry Smith and the late Paul Humphreys, which contains two interesting papers on #ModelTransfer.

See below for details:
Tarja Knuuttila and Andrea Loettgers argue that model templates, understood as abstract conceptual ideas associated with particular mathematical forms and computational methods, are crucial for the intra- and interdisciplinary transfer of models.
The issue also features fascinating papers on various problems related to the use of computer simulations by @_SethBullock_, @AlisaBokulich, Johannes Lenhard, Eckhart Arnold, Otávio Bueno, and Claus Beisbart.

NEW RESEARCH: The @ERC_Research requires reflecting our methodology of comp methods. In 2 papers, one with @MalteDoehne for A Currie & @Dr_inPhieVeigl Phil of Sci: A Users Guide & one in Synthese for Pence&Rivelli's collection Digital Studies of Digital Science, we do just that.
