| Event Name: | Animal minds: from computation to evolution |
| Description: | Recent discoveries of striking similarities in cognitive abilities between humans and other animals have fuelled attempts to understand the minds of other species and their relation to our own. This interdisciplinary meeting will bring together disparate fields to develop a theoretical infrastructure for cognition research, to generate testable predictions as to the evolutionary basis and computational structure of cognitive mechanisms. |
| Type of Event: | Nature Events |
| Event Agenda: | Organised by Professor Nicky Clayton, Dr Alex Thornton, Dr Uri Grodzinski
Registration will open shortly for this event.
This meeting is followed by a related Satellite meeting at the Kavli Royal Society International Centre entitled Theories of minds: the theoretical bases of comparative cognition from 18 - 19 January 2012.
