The issue of the nature and sources of scientific objectivity largely exceeds\u00a0 the academic sphere. Indeed, objectivity is considered as the very basis of the authority of science in our societies. As numerous political decisions make use of scientific expertise, questions concerning the very nature and limits of scientific objectivity are becoming central to public debate. In parallel, contemporary philosophy of science is currently trying to develop other conceptions of objectivity, which is no longer considered as a \u00a0\u00bbview-of-nowhere\u00a0\u00bb, but as the result of a dialogue between diverse scientific perspectives. This plurality is thus not seen as a threat. On the contrary, allowing the existence of a variety of standpoints is the condition of a well-founded objectivity.<\/p>\n

This epistemological position strongly echoes the contemporary calls for a larger implication of citizens in the very process of knowledge production. The issue of \u00a0\u00bbcitizen science\u00a0\u00bb is a striking manifestation of this movement. The question arises of knowing whether such a tendency is susceptible, in certain domains and in certain conditions, of improving the objectivity of the research process\u00a0? More precisely, what form the implication of citizens should take in order to optimize the epistemological conditions of scientific objectivity\u00a0?<\/p>\n
The PartiSciP project, which follows the Democrasci project (https:\/\/www.democrasci.com\/<\/a>), then aims to interrogate this participatory trend in an epistemological perspective.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=\u00a0\u00bb1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=\u00a0\u00bbon\u00a0\u00bb gutter_width=\u00a0\u00bb4″ padding_mobile=\u00a0\u00bboff\u00a0\u00bb column_padding_mobile=\u00a0\u00bbon\u00a0\u00bb _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb3.25″ background_size=\u00a0\u00bbinitial\u00a0\u00bb background_position=\u00a0\u00bbtop_left\u00a0\u00bb background_repeat=\u00a0\u00bbrepeat\u00a0\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00a0\u00bb1_2″ _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb3.25″ custom_padding=\u00a0\u00bb|||\u00a0\u00bb custom_padding__hover=\u00a0\u00bb|||\u00a0\u00bb][et_pb_team_member name=\u00a0\u00bbSt\u00e9phanie Ruphy\u00a0\u00bb position=\u00a0\u00bbCoordinator of the project, Professor of Philosophy of Science\u00a0\u00bb image_url=\u00a0\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.partiscip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/stephanie-ruffy.jpg\u00a0\u00bb admin_label=\u00a0\u00bbSt\u00e9phanie Ruphy\u00a0\u00bb _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb3.19.15″ header_font=\u00a0\u00bbAbel||||||||\u00a0\u00bb header_text_color=\u00a0\u00bb#233a67″ header_font_size=\u00a0\u00bb26px\u00a0\u00bb body_font=\u00a0\u00bb||||||||\u00a0\u00bb body_line_height=\u00a0\u00bb1.4em\u00a0\u00bb background_size=\u00a0\u00bbinitial\u00a0\u00bb background_position=\u00a0\u00bbtop_left\u00a0\u00bb background_repeat=\u00a0\u00bbrepeat\u00a0\u00bb text_orientation=\u00a0\u00bbleft\u00a0\u00bb custom_margin=\u00a0\u00bb|||\u00a0\u00bb filter_brightness=\u00a0\u00bb101%\u00a0\u00bb animation=\u00a0\u00bbfade_in\u00a0\u00bb border_radii_image=\u00a0\u00bbon|7px|7px|7px|7px\u00a0\u00bb use_border_color=\u00a0\u00bboff\u00a0\u00bb border_color=\u00a0\u00bb#ffffff\u00a0\u00bb border_width=\u00a0\u00bb1px\u00a0\u00bb border_style=\u00a0\u00bbsolid\u00a0\u00bb]<\/p>\n St\u00e9phanie holds a PhD in astrophysics (Paris VI University) and a PhD in philosophy (Columbia University).
