International Conference on Embodied of Cognitive Science (ECogS 2025)

Date

Monday, November 10, 2025 (All day) to Friday, November 14, 2025 (All day)

Location

OIST Main Campus Seminar Room B250

Description

This meeting aims to gather an international group of theoreticians and experimentalists to examine the state of the art in the phenomenon of agency and its manifestation across different scales, from cells to society.

The focus will be on exploring shared organizational principles connecting diverse expressions of agency. By drawing on strong theoretical foundations of cognitive agency at the individual human level, the goal is to investigate whether these insights can open new perspectives on smaller (e.g., cells) and larger living systems (e.g., ecologies).

The outcomes of this inquiry can enhance our understanding of steering biological regulation at all scales, with broad implications for health-giving interventions.
