2-4 July 2012, Symposium on Mathematical Practice and Cognition II, Birmingham, U.K.

Date: 2-4 July 2012
Location: Birmingham, U.K.
Deadline: 1 February 2012

This symposium is part of the AISB/IACAP World Congress 2012 in honour of Alan Turing. It is a sequel to the Symposium Mathematical Practice and Cognition held at the AISB convention 2010 in Leicester. That multidisciplinary symposium welcomed researchers into mathematical practice from cognitive science, philosophy, psychology, computational linguistics and robotics. The aim of this symposium is to continue this work, with particular (but not exclusive) emphasis on cognitive science and the role of computers in mathematical practice.

2012 is the centenary of Alan Turing's birth, and his life and scientific impact are being celebrated as the Alan Turing Year. In honour of this, the symposium will include a Turing-themed session.

We invite researchers from these disciplines and beyond to present their latest work. We especially encourage interdisciplinary submissions that link previously unassociated fields. Submission deadline: 1st February, 2012
