Interested in AI, brain science, experimental design, or the ethics of innovation? “The Nature of Experiment” conference<https://uwaterloo.ca/centre-for-german-studies/events/nature-experiment> may be for you. This one-day interdisciplinary, interfaculty conference, organized by the "Nature and Poetics" research group of the Waterloo Centre for German Studies, is being held April 8th at UW. Speakers include visiting scholars such as Jocelyn Holland (Cal Tech) and UW faculty members from departments across campus, including GER, ECE, ENGL, CS, PHIL, KIN, POLISCI, OPT, and PSYCH.
The main organizer, University Research Chair Alice Kuzniar (GER), writes: “Since the incorporation of the Royal Society in the 1660s, the experiment has been a central locus of both knowledge creation and design in our cultures and societies. Poets, engineers, scholars, entrepreneurs, and scientists all conduct experiments, and have done so for centuries. This conference will approach the intersections of intelligence, life, and the human from a unique perspective, through the concept and practice of the experiment, both today and in the past."
