Logic?? What do you DO with THAT!?
ILLC alumni are at the cutting-edge not only in academia, but also across tech, government, finance, nonprofit, and other sectors. Join us for a panel discussion with five ILLC alumni who are leading and innovating in their fields. Hear how their academic background informs their work in industry, and how they've navigated career changes and opportunities.
Panel discussion and audience Q&A session followed by reception.
Come have a look at the work of our brilliant student! You're very welcome to stop by — even briefly — to have a look and chat with the students about their work.
This year, the course is devoted to the theme Logic and Learning. The poster presentation forms the final component of the course and will feature around ten student posters on topics at the intersection of logic and artificial intelligence, based on papers studied during the seminar.
Are you a talented early-career scientist who has already produced excellent supervised work and shows potential to be a research leader? Then you may choose to apply to an ERC Starting or Consolidator Grant. This workshop will equip you with hands-on tools to write a successful proposal.
The Nordic Online Logic Seminar (NOL Seminar) is organised monthly over Zoom, with expository talks on topics of interest for the broader logic community. The seminar is open for professional or aspiring logicians and logic aficionados worldwide.
See the announcement for the next talk below. If you wish to receive the Zoom ID and password for it, as well as further announcements, please subscribe here:https://listserv.gu.se/sympa/subscribe/nordiclogic.
The KNAW Early Career Award encourages the further development of a diverse range of early career scientists and scholars who have made valuable and innovative contributions to science or scientific practice.
The prize is intended for scientists and scholars in the Kingdom of the Netherlands who obtained their PhD between three and seven years ago, and do not hold a position as Associate Professor, Full Professor or equivalent.
The De la Court Prize recognises individuals who have produced outstanding scholarly work in the social sciences or humanities without financial reward, independently and outside the established academic institutions.
The FGw Consortium Fund supports research staff in networking activities in the preparation of consortium applications with (inter)national, academic and/or societal partners, under EU programmes such as Horizon Europe Global Challenges, and national funding instruments, for example in the context of the Dutch National Research Agenda (NWA) and Knowledge and Innovation Covenant (KIC), and any such relevant programme or instrument.
The position is part of the DFG-funded project Learning Linguistic Inferences and Their Alternatives . The project investigates how language models learn linguistic inferences — including implicatures, presuppositions, implicated presuppositions, free choice, and distributive inferences — and whether training on one inference type facilitates learning of others.
The postdoc will play a central role across the project's work packages, contributing to the computational components of the project as well as to the design and implementation of online behavioral experiments, dataset construction, and data analysis. A successful candidate should hold a PhD degree in Linguistics or a closely related field, have expertise in computational linguistics and be able to engage with both the experimental and computational aspects of the project.
The ILLC is proud to announce that a paper by Bastiaan Laarakker, Daniël Otten, and Benno van den Berg, titled Constructing (Co)inductive Types via Large Sizes, has won the Best Paper Award by Junior Researchers. The prize will be awarded at the International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction in Lisbon in July 2026.
