Concepts, Actions and Objects: Functional and Neural Perspectives
The goal of this Rovereto workshop is to provide a unique forum for researchers from a range of perspectives who are interested in Concepts, Actions, and Objects to come together to discuss their research and develop new directions and collaborations.
The workshop differs from larger conferences in so far as there are a small number of speakers (all invited) and there are no concurrent talks. In addition to the individual talks, there will be a poster session for students, post-docs and young researchers to present their work.
Invited Speakers:
- Irving Biederman, University of Southern California, USA
- Brad Duchaine, Dartmouth College, USA
- Patrick Haggard, University College London, UK
- Antonia Hamilton, University College London, UK
- Zoe Kourtzi, University of Cambridge, UK
- Marius Peelen, University of Trento, Italy
- Tim Shallice, SISSA, Italy
- Yaoda Xu, Harvard University, USA
- Ehud Zohary, Hebrew University, Israel
