4 January 2010, Faculty Colloquium, Rens Bod

Speaker: Rens Bod
Title: The humanities from a scientific perspective
Location: Room C1.110, Science Park 904, Amsterdam

14-15 January 2010, GLoRiClass Farewell Event

Date: 14-15 January 2010
Location: Doelenzaal, Universiteitsbibliotheek, Singel 425, Amsterdam

After four years of research, the Marie Curie Research Training Site GLoRiClass is coming to the end of his four-year lifetime. Eight fellows have been funded by the project and wrote (or are still in the process of writing) their thesis. Their research touched many areas connecting games to other parts of logic. In our Farewell Event, we shall be celebrating the success of their work by inviting leading figures of their respective research areas.

On 14-15 January 2010, we shall meet again in the historical Doelenzaal of the university library (where also the Halftime Event was held). All eight fellows will present their research: Cédric Dégrémont, Amélie Gheerbrant, Daisuke Ikegami, Marc Staudacher, Jakub Szymanik, Joel D. Uckelman, Andreas Witzel, Jonathan Zvesper. In addition to that, we are inviting keynote speakers who are leaders of the research areas touched by the work of our fellows.

18-19 January 2010, Formal Models of Norm Change 2

Date: 18-19 January 2010
Location: Doelenzaal, Universiteitsbibliotheek, Singel 425, 1012 WP Amsterdam
Costs: Free

The symposium tackles dynamic aspects involved in normative systems change, by pursuing an interdisciplinary approach at the interface of (deontic) logic, artificial intelligence, and socio-economical disciplines. More specifically, topics of interest will be: norms and games, norms for the dynamics of interaction (procedures), the dynamics of normative systems, norm change and the dynamics of different cognitive attitudes (e.g. knowledge and preference).

Registration deadline: Monday January 4th. For more information, see http://www.cs.uu.nl/events/normchange2/index.html
