EmQM17 – Towards Ontology of Quantum Mechanics and the Conscious Agent

On the occasion of David Bohm’s 100th birthday, the EmQM17 Symposium offered an open forum for critically evaluating the prospects and significance – for 21st century physics – of ontological quantum mechanics, an approach which David Bohm helped pioneer. Contributions were invited that presented current advances in both standard as well as realist approaches to quantum mechanics, including new experiments, work in quantum foundations, and quantum philosophy.
