The first meeting of the London Mind Group will take place in Senate House on the 11th October 4-6pm. Matthew Crosby (Imperial) is speaking.

From the London Mind Group website:

“We are an intercollegiate University of London group featuring read-ahead meetings where postgraduate students and postdoctoral researchers can share their work. Once each academic term we also host an invited guest for a more traditional, non-read-ahead meeting.”

– A new Templeton Funded research project led by Matthew Parrott (KCL) and Anil Gomes (Oxford) which will involve seminars exploring different ways in which central topics in the epistemology of mind can be brought to bear on questions concerning the nature of mind.  These will prepare the groundwork for a two-day international conference on the metaphysical implications of the epistemology of mind. Philosophical study of the mind has too long ignored epistemological considerations. The primary aim in this project is to explore an epistemology-first approach to understanding the nature of the mind.

The first seminar will be on 8 May.

The website of the entire project can be found here.
