Türkü Özlüm Çelik could not attend, so their talk "Geometry and Complex Systems" did not take place.
Bursten references the "Models in Science" entry in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy and comments that she is structuring the matter differently.
Now the last talk of the symposium: Julia R. S. Bursten with "Multiscale Modeling of Nanomaterials: Epistemic Challenges and Opportunities".
Next up is Jeremy N. Harvey with "The Place of Historial Models in the Research Landscape".
Next up is Nicholas C. Norman with "Oxidation State and Valence in Chemistry: Two Simple Models that still Excite Controversy in Some Quarters".
Next up is Irving R. Epstein with "Representing Reality: Reflections from Nonlinear Chemical Dynamics and Elsewhere".
Seifert's talk is based on her paper "The Problem of Molecular Structure Just Is the Measurement Problem" with Alexander Franklin.
Next up is Vanessa A. Seifert with "Chemistry’s Place among the Sciences: A View from Philosophy".
After a change in programme, I am to present next on "How granular formalization transforms modeling into a social machine".
The third day of the symposium is actually the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the Beilstein Foundation. The day starts with Emma Cavazzoni presenting on "Bugs and Pears: Understanding Data Models Beyond Statistics".
