Third Call for Papers
The Russian Association for Cognitive Studies and the Cognitive Science Society invite submissions
for The Second Biennial Conference on Cognitive Science organized by the St. Petersburg State
University and the Government of St. Petersburg to be held on 9–13 June, 2006.
The organizers thank those who already sent their applications and announce that the deadline is

Our goal is to continue the multidisciplinary dialog started in Kazan in 2004 during the 1 st Russian

thinking, perception, consciousness, knowledge representation and acquisition, language as a means
of cognition and communication, brain mechanisms of cognition, emotion and higher forms of
behavior. Psychologists, linguists, neuroscientists, specialists in artificial intelligence and
neuroinformatics, computer scientists, philosophers, anthropologists, as well as other researchers
interested in interdisciplinary research on cognition, are invited to submit abstracts for oral and poster
presentations.
The working languages of the conference will be Russian and English.
The conference program will include overview lectures by leading experts in cognitive science,
round tables, oral papers, posters, and a special session for students and junior researchers. The invited
