powerful theoretical language for the design and modeling of
embodied and situated cognitive systems. This school provides a
hands-on and practical introduction to neuronal dynamics ideas
and enables participants to become productive within this
framework. The school is aimed at advanced undergraduate or
graduate students, postdocs, and faculty members in embodied
cognition, cognitive science, and robotics.</span></p>
