CSLI (Center For The Study Of Language And Information)

CSLI CogLunch

A Seminar Series on Cognitive Science

Thursdays, 12 noon-1:30 p.m.
Cordura Hall, Room 100

CogLunch is an interdisciplinary talk series hosted by CSLI, Stanford's Center for the Study of Language and Information. Over the years since its founding in 1995, CogLunch has played host to a distinguished variety of cognitive scientists from the Bay Area and the rest of the world. CogLunches are more informal than other talk series, allowing a lively interplay between the speaker and the CSLI community while encouraging the presentation of research-based talks for a general cognitive science audience.

As usual, we will offer informal but rigorous talks and lively discussions, starting at 12 noon (actual talk at 12:10pm) and going until approximately 1:30 on Thursdays. CogLunch takes place at Cordura Hall 100 (intersection of Campus Drive West and Panama Drive at the Stanford University campus; see map).

Chicken or vegetable burritos are available free for early birds at the door for the audience; please feel free to bring your own lunch if you prefer.

(In case you are wondering what the vcs info is, it is a vCalendar something you can import into many calendaring programs such as Stanford Sundial [you can copy and paste into the Sundial desktop client], Apple iCal [have to import a file],...)

Please keep an eye on the CSLI calendar for upcoming CogLunch talks. We will try to provide titles and abstracts, as well as information about the speakers at least one week ahead of time.
