Cognitive Science is the interdisciplinary study of the mind spanning from the human capacity to cognize to animal cognition and artificial intelligence. Subdisciplines of cognitive science range from psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence to philosophy and biological anthropology. Despite its wide scope and therefore quite heterogenous field, the core interest is cognition: what it is, how it works, and how we can model it. Each discipline contributes with its perspective and disciplinary research methods to the project of cognitive science with the aim of synthesizing these perspectives.

The speakers will be Christophe Heintz (ACE lab - Adaptive Cognition and Economics), Ágnes Melinda Kovacs (CDC - Cognitive Development Center), and Oana Stanciu (iSearch lab - Information Search, Ecological and Active learning Research with Children).
