Colloquia
The Mind and Space colloquium
Yoko Kawai, Barbara Landau, and Laurie Paul
Cognition and Space
The Mind and Space colloquium, organized by Yoko Kawai and taking place across a series of four events throughout the academic year, explores important questions including how our mind perceives space and whether our spaces can influence mental health. The events reflect on contemporary academic conversations on Mind and Space from the conceptual, such as the cultural definition of the self and space, to the scientific, which can be measured. Accordingly, invited speakers join from the fields of philosophy, religion, neuroscience, cognitive science, environmental psychology, and behavioral science.
