The Symposium on Causality will be hosted at the Museo Galileo on September 26 and 27.

It is one of the several events planned to celebrate the first centenary of the University of Florence.

Scholars from European and US universities and research centres will give their contributions on the relationship between data science and scientific method, with a special focus on causality and causal inference.
