Program Unit Online June Annual Meeting 2026

Science, Technology, and Religion Unit

Call for Proposals

The Science, Technology, and Religion unit is open to panel and individual paper proposals on any topic encompassed by our central topics and drawing on the breadth of religious traditions and historical periods.

Statement of Purpose

This Unit supports scholarship that explores the relationship of religion, theology, technology, and the natural sciences. We support research that attempts to bridge the gap between religious and scientific approaches to reality and encourage the development of constructive proposals that encourage engagement and dialogue with the sciences, along with a critical assessment of the meaning and impact of technologies for the human condition and the natural world.
