But instead of being a passing phase\, debates about functional localization are raging in contemporary cognitive neuroscience. Some consider functional localization a vital guiding paradigm for the science while others believe it has outlived its usefulness. To make matters worse\, localizationists and anti-localizationists do not seem to agree on what a commitment to localization entails\, or what counts as evidence against localization. In this talk\, I present a conceptual analysis of functional localization that highlights three dimensions or tenets of localization:&nbsp\;<em>structural specialization</em>\,&nbsp\;<em>localization of function</em>\, and&nbsp\;<em>intrinsicality</em>. I then show how this analysis can be used to clarify and advance contemporary debates about functional localization in cognitive neuroscience.</p>\n<p>This talk will be available online:</p>\n<p>Zoom:&nbsp\;<a  href="https://pitt.zoom.us/j/99418139587"  data-cke-saved-href="https://pitt.zoom.us/j/99418139587">https://pitt.zoom.us/j/99418139587</a></p>\n<p><br>YouTube:&nbsp\;<a  href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg"  data-cke-saved-href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg</a></p>
