Research Seminars

Alergic

Alergic (Artificial life reading group) meetings are a regular seminar series where presentations on recent work in Artificial Life, Adaptive Behaviour, Computational Neuroscience, Adaptive Robotics and related areas are given, both by internal and external speakers. About 200 people are on the Alergic mailing list, and audience numbers at seminars are typically in the range of 15 to 60 people. Alergic has roughly fortnightly talks, usually in room Arundel 401, on Wednesdays from 4.30 to 5.30pm.

It is a pioneering, internationally recognised centre for interdisciplinary investigation into the nature of cognition, be it natural or artificial. It holds regular research seminars at which internationally-recognised researchers from all corners of cognitive science research present and discuss their latest findings. All are welcome to attend. COGS also runs a series of open lectures on the history of cognitive science.

Philosophy Society

Everybody is welcome to come to the weekly Philosophy Society, which all Philosophy students are encouraged to attend. A talk is given by a visiting philosopher, or one of the Sussex tutors or students.

These meetings are entertaining as well as instructive, and always well attended.

All are welcome to join in.
