Entitled Minds and Societies, the 2008 Summer Institute will again address
an important current topic in cognitive science: social cognition. The
Institute is gathering leading researchers on the interface and transition
between individual ideas and minds and collective, distributed ones
(biosocial psychology, cognitive anthropology, social neuroscience,
distributed cognition, extended mind philosophy, etc.). We hope that all
will be stimulated by this confluence of perspectives. Confirmed speakers
include (alphabetically): Daniel Batson, Paul Bloom, Richard Byrne, Angelo
Cangelosi, Daniel Dennett, Terrence Deacon, Merlin Donald, Shimon Edelman,
Rob Goldstone, Ursula Hess, Philip Jackson, Frank Keil, Andrew Meltzoff, Elizabeth Pacherie, Jesse Prinz, Rebbeca Saxe, Barry Wellman, and many more.

Please visit our web site for the current program and additional details
about the Summer Institute.

The Summer Institute welcomes both junior and senior scientists and scholars
in the many fields impinging on social cognition as well as graduate
students (enrollment can be credited —3 credits— by the University of Québec
at Montréal and may be transferred towards your degree). Researchers and
graduate students may also present their work at a special posters session
(the call for posters will be sent out soon).
