Subject: The Craik Journal Club

Description: Named after Kenneth Craik, one of the earliest practitioners of cognitive science, the Craik Journal Club is a biweekly meeting providing an informal forum for anybody interested in debating cognitive psychology and neuroscience articles related to human perception, memory and decision making.

Each meeting will focus on a single paper, which will be announced one week ahead. Although the meetings will have a leading host who will introduce key aspects of the paper, we will encourage collective and active discussions of the article by all present. Indeed, the ideal scenario is that everybody will read the paper (at least roughly) in advance, so that we can together clarify its important points, ponder about possible improvements, and relate the findings to other studies and wider literature.

To keep things informal, we encourage people to work off the paper in hand instead of using prepared presentation slides. The journal club is open to everybody from the University of Cambridge community. Please, do let us know if you would be interested in being a leading host for one of our meetings. All individual talks will be advertised via https://talks.cam.ac.uk/show/index/175135.
