DESCRIPTION:<p>Information-Theoretic Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics is a two day workshop taking place June 11-12\, 2016 at Western University in London\, Ontario\, Canada. The workshop is co-sponsored by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada\, the Rotman Institute of Philosophy\, the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics\, the Institute for Quantum Computing at University of Waterloo\, and Research Western.</p>\n<p>The workshop is inspired by Jeffrey Bub&rsquo\;s recently published book "Bananaworld: Quantum Mechanics for Primates" (Oxford University Press). The workshop will bring together diverse views on issues raised by and related to Professor Bub&rsquo\;s work on developing an information-theoretic interpretation of quantum theory.</p>\n<p>The workshop will be preceded by a graduate student conference\, the 16th Annual Philosophy of Logic\, Math and Physics (LMP) Graduate Student Conference (http://logicmathphysics.ca/).</p>\n<p>SPEAKERS</p>\n<p>(a detailed program\, including titles and abstracts\, will be posted on the workshop's website soon)</p>\n<p>1) Jeffrey Bub\, University of Maryland\, to be followed by commentaries from: &nbsp\; - Leah Henderson\, University of Groningen - Allen Stairs\, University of Maryland - Christopher Timpson\, University of Oxford</p>\n<p>2) Gilles Brassard\, University of Montreal</p>\n<p>3) Armond Duwell\, University of Montana</p>\n<p>4) Joseph Emerson\, University of Waterloo</p>\n<p>5) Laura Felline\, Roma Tre University</p>\n<p>6) Marissa Giustina\, University of Vienna</p>\n<p>7) Lucien Hardy\, Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics</p>\n<p>8) Richard Healey\, University of Arizona</p>\n<p>9) Matthew Pusey\, Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics</p>\n<p>10) R&uuml\;diger Schack\, University of London</p>\n<p>11) Robert Spekkens\, Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics</p>\n<p>DATES AND REGISTRATION:</p>\n<p>Conference Date: June 11-12\, 2016</p>\n<p>Everyone is welcome to attend\, and attendance is free.
