The Dynamical Systems Approach to Life and Cognition (DSaLC for short) understands life and cognition as the ongoing coupling between agents and their environment. The aim of this reading group is to promote the discussion on how DSaLC tackles a range of topics.

We have regular meetings twice a month, during term time, and organise other activities, including workshops and talks by invited speakers.

activate.d workshop @ Ecal 2005: activate.d organised the workshop Active agents and their environments as dynamical systems during Ecal 2005 (5th to 9th of September) in Canterbury, UK. The papers are now online in the conference's website. A special issue of the Adaptive Behaviour Journal constituted by papers from that workshop (updated versions incorporating contributions from the discussions) has now [info updated July 2006] been published in vol.14:2.

In accordance with a suggestion put forward by participants, an online discussion group was created for the follow-up of the vivid discussion we maintained during the roundtable discussion at the workshop. Everyone (having attended or not) is invited to join in. See the Google box below to subscribe.
