Get to know us and what we do!
Meet the different research groups of the Institute of Cognitve Science and get to know our current research! On 31st May, we will have a series of short lightning talks on embodied cognition, evolution, social interaction, ChatGPT, primate vision and communication, and many more topics. The talk series starts at 12:15 in building 93 (room E44) and ends with a cookie reception in front of the Mensa Westerberg. We are looking forward to a fruitful discussion of potential joint future research at the IKW and hope to see many of you!

IKW celebrates the birth of a new era: IKW 2.0
During the last months the management board has been restructuring the Institute of Cognitive Science. We now have a head of management, Dr. Tobias Thelen, who manages every day business and works closely together with the board of management. The director’s work is split among a team that is responsible for strategic management. The current members of the board are Prof. Gordon Pipa (finances), Prof. Nicole Gotzner (personnel), Prof. Simone Pika (research), Prof. Sven Walter (study program), Dr. Annette Hohenberger, Gabriela Pipa and Joshua Stock. We, together with our staff members, celebrated the start of the new era: IKW 2.0
