During the last 25 years, philosophers of science in the analytic tradition have been inquiring into the methodological foundations of medicine, addressing questions such as the definition of diseases or the proper assessment of biomedical evidence and causation. Sessions on these topics have proliferated in the major conferences in our field and the literature is growing exponentially. In this course, we want to provide a short introduction to the philosophical dilemmas that arise in scientific medicine.
