Bruce Glymour

Bruce Glymour is a Professor of Philosophy at Kansas State University, specializing in the philosophy of science with a focus on modeling in statistical sciences, particularly evolutionary and population biology. His work examines mismatches between data generation, model inference, mathematical forms, and their applications in prediction, explanation, and intervention.

• Research Themes: Algorithmic bias, group selection, causal analysis, evolutionary environments, and ethics of scientific communication.
• Publications: Span evolutionary theory, probabilistic causation, interactive causation, and modeling in philosophy of science.

Key Trends: Recent work addresses algorithmic fairness and fitness probability distributions, while earlier papers explore group selection, causal realism, and indeterminism in evolutionary theory.

Unpublished Work: Includes drafts on causation, democracy in science, and consequentialism in ethical dilemmas.
