Swedigarch in conjunction with both the Department of Philosophy and the Department of Archaeology at Umeå University, are delighted to announce an upcoming Swedigarch Inspirational Lecture, to be held at Umeå University on 15 April, 2026, and shared online (the link will be made available closer to the day). Our speaker this time is Dr. Sara Uckelman, a Professor of Logic at Durham University, who will be speaking on the intersection of Philosophy with Swedigarch’s mission. The title of her talk is Making the Erudite Accessible.

Dr. Sara L. Uckelman is a Professor of Logic at Durham University.  She joined the Department of Philosophy in 2014 after completing her PhD at the University of Amsterdam in 2009, with a dissertation entitled Modalities in Medieval Logic, and undertaking post-docs in Amsterdam, Tilburg, and Heidelberg.  An expert in both contemporary logic and the history of logic, Dr. Uckelman’s recent research has focused on how to make logic a more inclusive discipline, and she has particular interest in women in the history of logic.
