CogSci 2023

Hong Kong Meetup & Workshop

Cognition, Language, and AI

 

As the premier organization in the field, the Cognitive Science Society is dedicated to promoting cognitive science as a discipline and fostering scientific interchange among researchers from various areas of study. The CogSci 2023 main conference (https://cognitivesciencesociety.org/cogsci-2023/) brings together a diverse group of scholars from around the globe who share a common goal: understanding the nature of the human mind.

To encourage face-to-face interactions and strengthen connections among local Hong Kong researchers and students with a keen interest in cognitive science, we are hosting the CogSci 2023 Hong Kong Meetup & Workshop - Cognition, Language, and AI, at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). We welcome individuals with an interest in cognitive science to attend or present at the Meetup, regardless of their registration status with the CogSci 2023 main conference.
