Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce that registrations are now open for the Statistical Physics of Cognition Workshop, taking place on the 25th and 26th of November 2024 at the Institute of Physics, King’s Cross, London. You can register for the event here: https://iop.eventsair.com/spc2024/register We would also like to remind everyone that the abstract submission deadline for the poster session is fast approaching on 31st October 2024. PhD students and early career researchers are particularly encouraged to submit abstracts for this exciting opportunity to share your work. Please submit your abstracts at the following link: https://iop.eventsair.com/spc2024/abstract-submission For further details about the workshop, you can explore the program here: https://iop.eventsair.com/spc2024/programme Additionally, we are thrilled to announce a public event featuring a fireside chat between Prof. John Krakauer and Prof. Karl Friston on the intriguing topic, "Can Reductionism Explain the Mind?" This discussion will take place on the evening of 25th November, followed by a drinks reception. We look forward to welcoming you to an interdisciplinary gathering that will bring together experts from neuroscience and physics to explore cognition in innovative ways. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out, and we hope to see you there!
