Workshops

The conference workshop program gives an opportunity for in-depth discussion of a specific topic important to cognitive science. Workshops concentrate on emerging research or cross-disciplinary topics. Some workshops also focus on application issues and research methods. Workshops are held on Wednesday, July 20, 2011, which is the day before the main program begins. For more details, see schedule.
