MindGrad is a long-established and well-respected graduate conference held annually at the University of Warwick under the auspices of the Warwick Mind & Action Research Centre. 2026 will mark an important place in MindGrad’s history by marking its 20th instalment. The 20th anniversary also happily follows the 60th birthday of Warwick’s philosophy department. The conference will be open-themed and held in person on the weekend of the 14th-15th of February 2026.
To celebrate MindGrad’s 20th anniversary, we are honoured to welcome Professor Helen Steward (Leeds), Dr Jessie Munton (Cambridge), and Dr Rory Madden (UCL).
We are currently seeking graduate students interested in presenting at the upcoming MindGrad conference. We welcome papers of up to 5000 words (excluding bibliography), suitable for a 45-minute presentation. Papers should be accompanied by an abstract of around 300 words. Please note that after each 45-minute presentation, there will be a 15-minute response before opening the floor to attendees for a 30-minute Q&A session. We strongly encourage graduate speakers from all backgrounds and career stages to submit.
As MindGrad 2026 is open-themed, the conference welcomes paper submissions under the broad umbrella of the Philosophy of Mind. We also welcome papers focusing on the Philosophy of Mind with components from other disciplines such as history and psychology.
Please ensure that your paper and abstract are submitted by Monday 6th of October 2025 in order to be considered.
