SUMMARY:CINNergies Reading Club - Philosophy of science: do physiology and psychology align?
DESCRIPTION:CINNergies Reading Club\nPhilosophy of science: do physiology and psychology align?\n\n\n7th May 2021: 0900-1200 BST \nCINNergies are hosting a reading club and debate on the “Brain-Cognitive behaviour problem”. This debate is set to get to the heart of the challenges and potential benefits of interdisciplinary research. \nAccording to nature research: “Cognitive neuroscience is the field of study focusing on the neural substrates of mental processes. It is at the intersection of psychology and neuroscience\, but also overlaps with physiological psychology\, cognitive psychology and neuropsychology. It combines the theories of cognitive psychology and computational modelling with experimental data about the brain.” \nBut can this scientific field successfully navigate the complex interdisciplinarity of the issues it is set out to investigate? \nSign up here and see below to access some of the resources we’ll be discussing. \n\n\n\n\nArticles to read\nPodcasts to listen to\nWebinars to watch\n\n\n\nGyörgy Buzsáki\nThe Brain–Cognitive Behavior Problem: A Retrospective\n\n\nRuss Poldrack\nCognitive Ontologies\n(Brain Inspired)\n\n\nRuss Poldrak\nThe measurement crisis in cognitive neuroscience\n(Reading Emotions 2020)\n\n\n\n\nDavid Poeppel and Federico Adolfi\nAgainst the Epistemological Primacy of the Hardware: The Brain from Inside Out\, Turned Upside Down\n\n\nGyörgy Buzsáki and David Poeppel\n(Brain Inspired)\n\n\nAnastasia Christakou\nFrom molecules to mind\n\n\n\n\nShimon Marom\nDialogue Across Chasm: Are Psychology and Neurophysiology Incompatible?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCINNergies\, part of the Centre for Integrative Neuroscience and Neurodynamics (CINN)\, is a creative and diverse community of early career researchers who share an openness for and motivation to engage in interdisciplinary research.

SUMMARY:Fairbrother Lecture: Living with More than One Language - The Effects of Bilingualism on Mind and Brain
DESCRIPTION:Dr Toms Voits\, UiT The Arctic University of Norway \nLanguage is frequently in the headlines\, from worries about people speaking too many languages or too few\, to questions of whether bilingualism protects against cognitive decline in later life. Bilingualism has featured prominently in language debates\, with stories often over-simplifying a more complex picture. \nJoin former Reading doctoral researcher Toms Voits on a journey through the uniqueness and complexity of the human brain’s capacity for language. This public lecture will introduce the ways in which two or more languages co-habit within a single mind\, how processing allows languages to compete and co-operate\, and the much-debated effects of bilingualism on mind and brain. With a focus on research on bilingualism in older adults\, the lecture will examine some of the complexities that need to be unpicked in order to understand relationships between ageing\, cognitive health and language. \n*Due to current restrictions\, this year’s Fairbrother Lecture will be delivered as a pre-recorded film that can be viewed online at any time after its release on Tuesday 11 May. \nTo sign up to receive the link to view the lecture recording please visit the Events page. \nFor further information contact Dr Joanna John. \nFor information on Fairbrother Lectures in other years see previous events.

SUMMARY:Spring Online Alumni Lecture Series: COVID – Stories from the Frontline – Culture Shock: How COVID has changed the arts
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has caused havoc and upheaval in ways no-one could have foreseen. In our spring online Alumni Lecture Series\, we welcome University of Reading graduates from diverse backgrounds and industries to share their experiences and expertise on how the global pandemic has changed their sectors. \nThe global pandemic has had a devastating impact on the cultural sector – both in the UK and around the world. Diverse activities from live performances and theatre productions to exhibitions and galleries\, have seen revenue fall dramatically as venues have closed their doors and gatherings have been limited by lockdowns and social distancing. \nUniversity of Reading Vice-Chancellor\, Professor Robert Van de Noort wil be joined by successful music agent and executive\, Reading graduate Emma Banks (BSc Food Science\, 1989)\, who will share her experiences of how COVID-19 has impacted the music industry. This online discussion will provide an insight into what Emma thinks the short and long-term consequences are for the industry and what lessons she’s learnt from the pandemic. \nEmma works for Creative Artists Agency (CAA) – a leading entertainment and sports agency – where she represents many of the world’s leading musicians\, including Katy Perry\, Muse\, Arcade Fire\, Red Hot Chili Peppers\, Florence + The Machine\, and Kylie Minogue. \nAttendance free\, but booking essential.
