The CEU Philosophy Department cordially invites you to a lecture
by
Svetlana Nagumanova (Kazan State Medical University-Philosophy
Department, fellow at CEU Philosophy Department)
on
Can consciousness be reductively explained?
Tuesday, 13. December 2005 6.00pm Zrinyi 14, room 412
Those who answer "No" argue that there is an explanatory gap
between physical/functional facts and facts of consciousness and that
there are reasons why this gap cannot be filled. Among those who answer
"Yes" there are people who argue that explanatory gap can be closed
in principle and yet others who claim to have provided such an
explanation in practice. In this paper I shall consider arguments for
the existence of an explanatory gap, then I shall explore objections to
these arguments and related alternatives. One of these alternatives
seems more plausible to me.

I am looking for a few Ph.D students.
The Ph.D program of the Cognitive Science department at RPI is accepting
applications. Graduate assistantships and other forms of financial
support for graduate students are available.
Prospective graduate students with interests in Cognitive Science,
especially in learning and skill acquisition and in the relationship
between cognition and sociality, are encouraged to apply. Prospective
applicants should have background in computer science (the equivalent
of a BS in computer science), and have some prior exposure to
psychology,
artificial intelligence, connectionist models (neural networks),
multi-agent
systems, and other related areas. Students with a Master's degree
already completed are preferred.
RPI is a top-tier research university. The CogSci department has
identified the Ph.D program and research as its primary missions. The
department is conducting research in a number of areas:
cognitive modeling, human and machine learning, multi-agent interactions
and social simulation, neural networks and connectionist models, human
and machine reasoning, cognitive engineering,
and so on.
See the Web page below regarding my research:
http://www.cogsci.rpi.edu/~rsun
For the application procedure, see
http://www.cogsci.rpi.edu/
The application deadline is Jan.15, 2005.
If you decide to apply, follow the official procedure as outlined on
the Web page. Send me a short email (in plain text) AFTER you
