Nijmegen Lectures 2022
13 May 2022
From 5 to 7 July, the Radboud University and the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics will be hosting the Nijmegen Lectures 2022. This year the lectures will be given by Stanislas Dehaene, Director of the INSERM-CEA Cognitive Neuroimaging Unit and Professor of Experimental Cognitive Psychology at Collège de France.
Dehaene will talk about the origins of uniquely human abilities such as language, math or music and explain his working hypothesis that the human brain has a special knack for recursive structures and projects on the external world.
In these lectures, he will show experiment results in natural and artificial language learning, mathematics and learning to read, which are loosely connected by the capacity to recombine information.
The Nijmegen Lectures are organised by Simon Fisher, Peter Hagoort, Floris de Lange (DI), Paula Fikkert (CLS), Ilse van den Dobbelsteen and Martina Bernhard.
Registration is open now.
