CNRS residential summer school
15-19 Sep 2025 Porquerolles (France)

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
