We are pleased to announce a one-day meeting (a CCN 2026 satellite event) on 1st August 2026 in New York:

COMPUTATIONAL CONSCIOUSNESS SCIENCE

A recent explosion of interest in computational models of consciousness comes both from our attempts to extend computational models of perception and cognition to their subjective aspects and from the importance of consciousness to the ethical implications of AI models.

This satellite meeting examines computational approaches from the points of view of philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience, with keynotes from David Chalmers (philosophy), Marisa Carrasco (psychology), and Biyu He (neuroscience).

There will also be research talks from faculty, postdocs, and PhDs highlighting the contribution of computational models to our understanding of change-blindness, iconic memory, spatial perception, and visual illusions, as well as helping us to develop new measures of conscious awareness.

A closing panel discussion will explore new and future directions for the emerging discipline of computational consciousness science.

Date: Saturday, August 1, 2026

Location: NYU Department of Philosophy, 5 Washington Place, New York, NY 10003
