A CNRS residential Summer School to explore interdisciplinary concepts of TIME
Objectives
Time is integral part of our everyday lives. It's essential for action, perception, decision-making, and communication amongst many other cognitive processes.
Cognitive neuroscientists and psychologists have framed time in terms of duration, simultaneity, order, and rhythm. This interdisciplinary summer school will bring together experts and enthusiasts studying these phenomena from a variety of academic disciplines.
Speakers come primarily from the fields of cognitive neuroscience, neuroscience, psychology & ethology
With additional contributions from researchers in the fields of
History of science
Philosophy
Physics
We hope that the residential nature of the summer school will:
broaden perspectives on the study of time from different viewpoints
foster interdisciplinary collaboration
stimulate creative research questions
