The Project

Ontology After Quine is a research project funded by the DFG, based at the University of Hamburg, and led by Richard Woodward. As its name suggests, the project focuses on a variety of issues in metametaphysics and metaontology, set against the backdrop of the Quinean conception of ontological inquiry that became orthodox in the latter half of the last century.

About Emmy

Emmy Noether was a renowned German mathematician who made groundbreaking contributions to abstract algebra and theoretical physics. When she died in 1935 at the age of 53, Einstein described her as the most important woman in the history of mathematics. But although the theorem named after her is part of the basis for mathematical physics, she never received a full professorship in Germany. READ MORE.

The Emmy Noether Programme offered by the DFG (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) offers early career researchers the chance to lead their own junior research groups, achieve independence at an early stage of their scientific careers, and provides an alternative path to professorship.
