Barcelona, June 1 st -3 rd 2022

29 th edition of the SIUCC (Seminario Interuniversitario de Ciencia Cognitiva/Inter‐University Workshop on Philosophy and Cognitive Science) to be held in Barcelona between June 1 st and June 3rd, 2022. This edition of the SIUCC is focused on Susanna Siegel’s work.

Susanna Siegel is Edgar Pierce Professor of Philosophy at Harvard University. She works on topics in the philosophy of mind and epistemology. Her research focuses mainly on perception. It draws on both philosophy and the sciences of the mind. She has written about what kinds of things we can perceive; how our perceptions can be influenced by what we already know, suspect, or fear; and the relationships between perception and culture, memory, knowledge, concepts, and language. She has published two very influential books: The Contents of Visual Experience (2010) and The Rationality of Perception (2017) (OUP). Professor Siegel is also interested in political philosophy.

This conference is organized under the auspicies of the Spanish Society for Analytic Philosophy (SEFA) in collaboration with the Society for Women in Philosophy-Analytic Spain (SWIP-A-Spain).
