Event Cognition Conference

Event Cognition Conference
June 8–10, 2027 | Rome, Italy | Notre Dame Rome
About the Conference:
The study of cognition about events has expanded dramatically over the past 20 years, giving rise to an interdisciplinary research community spanning cognitive psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy, film studies, computer science, and related fields. Yet researchers working across these disciplines have had relatively few opportunities to come together to share findings, approaches, and theoretical perspectives.
The Event Cognition Conference is an interdisciplinary and international gathering of scholars studying event cognition. The conference will bring together research teams to present ongoing work, share findings and methodological approaches, and collectively identify new directions for advancing the field.
