[CogSci] Analogical Minds Seminar Spring 2023 Schedule

[Margarita Pavlova]

Dear all,

We are delighted to announce that the Analogical Minds Seminar will be
returning next week on Thursday 12th January with a new series of talks on
analogical processes in cognition and learning. Over the spring term, we
will be exploring the analogical minds of humans, machines, birds, and
bumble bees, covering topics such as reasoning and inference, language
development, conceptual blending, mathematics, design, and science
education.

For this series, we will be holding seminars during the Time A and Time B
slots only. Most of the seminars are scheduled at Time A and will take
place on Thursdays from 11:00 am – 12:30 pm US Central Time. Seminars
scheduled at the Time B slot are highlighted in blue in the program below.
