(LHC)" organizes a workshop entitled "Modeling and LHC", which will
take place at Wuppertal University from January 26th to January 28th

The workshop will feature talks by 14 distinguished invited speakers from both physics and philosophy. Topics covered will include, among others, the relation between models and fiction, the connection between models and simulation, the role of models beyond the standard model for LHC research practices, and the conceptual connection between models and effective field theories. Updated detailed information on the workshop on "Modeling and LHC", January 26 to 28, 2012, Wuppertal University,including the program of the workshop and abstracts of the talks to be given can now be found on the webpage http://www.lhc-epistemologie.
