This workshop is a specialized event held at the University of Antwerp, Belgium, on June 4-5, 2026. It explores alternatives to the traditional "mind as computer" view in cognitive science, featuring talks on the philosophy of biological brains.
The NERDS (NEtwoRks, Data, and Society) team at the IT University of Copenhagen welcomes applications from aspiring postdocs in the areas of Data Science, Mathematical Modeling, and Network Science with applications to inference, forecasting, and mitigation in future epidemics. Starting in September 2026 or soon thereafter.
The Belgrade School on Complex Systems (BeComplex 2026) is an international workshop organized by the Faculty of Physics at the University of Belgrade. It is scheduled to take place from June 21 to June 27, 2026. The event is designed to bring together global experts across diverse fields—including physics, biology, economics, and neuroscience—to explore the common motifs of complex systems.
Autotelic Creative Artificial Intelligence (ACAI) refers to AI systems that are intrinsically motivated to set, pursue, and achieve their own goals, driven by curiosity and play rather than predefined external rewards.

The Chalmers University of Technology is hiring two Postdocs to work on Theoretical Foundations of AI Safety. If you have a background in Physics, Math, or ML and want to tackle AI alignment at a fundamental level alongside UCL, apply!
We're hiring! Global shocks – wars, pandemics, climate extremes – don't just disrupt supply chains. They reshape societies. We're looking for a Postdoc to help us model exactly that, using ABM and complexity science. 3-year funded position in Vienna. Apply by April 1, 2026.
The International Conference on Embodied Cognitive Science (ECogS 2026) is scheduled for November 9–13, 2026, at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) Graduate University in Japan.
