SUMMARY:Introduction to Bibliometrics (Research Staff Development Opportunity)
DESCRIPTION:Bibliometric data are increasingly used in research assessment exercises and in recruitment decisions but they can also give you insights into how your research is being used by others and help you to make informed journal choices. This session will introduce some commonly used bibliometrics and explain how they are calculated and what they mean. The issues behind the responsible use of metrics will also be explored. A hands-on section of the session will use tools such as Scopus\, SciVal\, Google Scholar and InCites to explore bibliometric data sources. This is a 90 minute session however the last 30 minutes will be allocated for hands on tasks.

SUMMARY:Public Lecture: Albert Wolters Lecture 2019
DESCRIPTION:Delivered by Professor Daniel C. Dennett\, Center for Cognitive Studies\, Tufts University \nAutonomy is a fancy word for self-control. It comes in degrees\, and while some varieties can be largely the achievement of unconscious control—for instance\, the abilities to stand\, walk\, run and avoid obstacles—the morally important varieties require consciousness: you can’t make a promise or be “moved by reasons” without the ability to entertain alternatives\, think about both the past and the future\, and make informed decisions under uncertainty. We are not born with these abilities and achieving the level of autonomy of a morally responsible agent takes years of experience and maturation. This self-control is the only variety of free will worth wanting\, and it has nothing to do with whether physics is deterministic or not. A thought experiment about emancipating a drone\, making it more and more autonomous\, reveals the outlines of the role of language and consciousness in making us the sorts of things that can be trusted to keep a promise. \nAdmission free\, booking essential. \n
