SUMMARY:Winter School "Ethics of Neuroscience and AI" 2021
DESCRIPTION:The 10th Winter School “Ethics of Neuroscience and AI” is taking place on March 8-12\, 2021.\nIt is organized by the BCCN Berlin/ICCN\, the Berlin School of Mind and Brain\, and the Excellence Cluster “Science of Intelligence”.\nThe event is tailored for MSc and PhD students\, but covers a range of topics of potential interest to other researchers\, reflecting on the ethical and societal consequences of modern neuroscience. \n\nTheoretical foundations\, as well as practical and ethical aspects are addressed. Participants will benefit from a combination of lectures with group work and discussions\, where they will put the learned content into practice. This year the focus will be on artificial intelligence.\nClick here for more information.

SUMMARY:Thursday Morning Talk With Jakub Limanowski (TU Dresden): Precision Control as a Mechanism for Shaping Body Models
DESCRIPTION:When controlling action — e.g.\, hand movements — the brain typically relies on seen and felt posture information to represent ‘its’ body. It is thought that the brain combines these estimates into a multisensory (e.g. hand) representation in a probabilistic fashion\, accounting for how reliable each estimate is in the given context. I will present behavioural\, brain imaging\, and computational modelling work—which jointly suggest that during action\, the weights (i.e.\, the precision) assigned to visual vs proprioceptive information about body position can be changed in a top-down fashion by e.g. adoption of an ‘attentional set’. Such a contextualising function of ‘gain control’ is in line with predictive models of body representation\, where the expected precision of sensory prediction errors is based on internal model beliefs. I will conclude that (to some degree) body representations can be deliberately shaped by this mechanism; and I will discuss what this implies for the near future — in which entertaining and switching between multiple body representations\, e.g. in virtual realities\, may be increasingly common.\n  \n \n

SUMMARY:SCIoI at Brain Awareness Week - Becoming Aware Through Mindfulness
DESCRIPTION:A Brain Awareness Week event organized by Scholar Minds and in collaboration with Science of Intelligence and the Berlin School of Mind and Brain \n“We from Scholar Minds and in collaboration with Science of Intelligence and the Berlin School of Mind and Brain want to invite you to our online event on Thursday\, 18th of March\, at 5pm. We are a PhD initiative based in Berlin which focuses on mental health during the doctorate. Our mission is to help other PhD students to achieve a better mental health and work-life balance. \nPursuing a doctorate is an exceptional time with great opportunities like investigating a phenomenon no one ever did before or discussing your research with new people from all over the world. But are you aware that this exceptional time also harbors exceptional dangers to your mental health? Are you aware that you as a PhD student are six times more likely to suffer from anxiety and depression? During our event\, we want to raise your awareness on mental health struggles related to your doctorate and introduce you to a tool to become more resilient: mindfulness. Mindfulness is a simple meditation tool that can help you to increase your mental well-being.\nWe are happy to have the mindfulness expert Dr. Simon Guendelman with us who will present the concept and latest findings from (neuroscientific) research. On top\, he will take us onto a little journey to become more aware about ourselves through mindfulness. \nClick here to register: https://forms.gle/YpwcfRBkGGxy6Yhu5” \nhttps://www.brainawareness.org/event/becoming-aware-through-mindfulness-2/

SUMMARY:SCIoI at Brain Awareness Week – Visual Illusions and Perception
DESCRIPTION:A lab demonstration on optical illusions for Brain Awareness Week\, organized by SCIoI + Active Perception and Cognition Lab (Martin Rolfs) \n“We from the active perception and cognition lab would like to invite you to our online event on Friday\, March 19th at 6pm\, for a presentation on visual illusions. Our lab is located at the Department of Psychology at Humboldt Universität in Berlin. The main focus of our research is on assessing the architecture and plasticity of processes involved in active vision and cognition using various methods such as eye tracking\, motion tracking\, psychophysics\, computational modelling\, EEG\, and recently\, robotics. \nIf you are interested in learning about visual illusions\, in active perception\, psychology and how you view the world through your eyes\, then please sign up by filling out the form below. In this talk you can expect to see first hand how your eyes can play tricks on you and learn about how your brain processes various types of visual information. \nPlease register here:\nhttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeOgwzeOWtbAi51B4IwBfDiJlBNTDtPmUJNSBVOTA08dvbSJw/viewform\nYou will receive a zoom link before the event by sharing your email below. We look forward to seeing you!” \nwww.brainawareness.org

SUMMARY:Workshop on Intelligence and Abilities (SCIoI/Human Abilities – Centre for Advanced Studies in the Humanities\, HU Berlin)
DESCRIPTION:This two-day workshop\, co-organised by the Berlin-based Science of Intelligence Cluster and Human Abilities – Centre for Advanced Studies in the Humanities\, brings together philosophers and cognitive scientists to discuss the relationships between intelligence and abilities in humans\, nonhuman animals\, and artificial systems. Is intelligence best seen as an ability? How to understand cognitive abilities and skills to start with? How can we investigate abilities and intelligence philosophically and scientifically? \nThe workshop will take place on 22 and 23 March from 2–6:30pm (CET)\, and the speakers are: \nEllen Fridland (London)\nRomy Jaster (Berlin)\nDimitri Coelho Mollo (Berlin)\nCarlotta Pavese (Cornell)\nMartin Rolfs (Berlin)\nBarbara Vetter (Berlin) \nThe workshop will take place on Zoom\, with social gatherings on Wonder. To register\, please write an email to communication@scioi.de.\nFor questions\, feel free to contact the organisers\, Dimitri Coelho Mollo (dimitri.coelhomollo@hu-berlin.de) and Sanja Dembić (sanja.dembic@hu-berlin.de). \n\nProgramme (all times in CET):\nMarch 22 (Monday) \n14:00-15:00: Dimitri Coelho Mollo: Unifying the sciences of intelligence: abilities and representation \n15:00-15:15: Break \n15:15-16:15: Martin Rolfs: Delineating abilities of an active visual system \n16:15-16:30: Break \n16:30-17:30: Barbara Vetter: The epistemology of ability \n17:30-17:45: Break \n17:45-18:30: Roundtable with all workshop speakers\n \nMarch 23 (Tuesday) \n \n14:00-15:00: Romy Jaster: A Challenge for Ability Accounts of Practical Intelligence \n15:00-15:15: Break \n15:15-16:15: Ellen Fridland: Practical Intentions\, Action Schemas\, and Strategic Control in Skill \n16:15-16:30: Break \n16:30-17:30: Carlotta Pavese: Intelligence\, Regress\, and Novelty. \n17:30-17:45: Break \n17:45-18:30: Roundtable with all workshop speakers \nFull programme with abstracts can be downloaded here.
