Michèle Lamont, cultural sociologist and 2017 Erasmus Prize laureate, will talk to researchers working in a variety of domains about diversity in science. The conference will address such themes as disciplinary diversity, researcher diversity and diversity in quality indicators. Throughout the event, the discussion will focus on one key question: who decides what is successful and valuable in scientific research?
