ABSTRACTOISE-0726257 Bermudez, Washington University, St. Louis (WUSTL)US-China Joint Workshop on Memory and Language: Interdisciplinary PerspectivesThis award funds the U.S. PI, Jose L. Bermudez, Professor of Philosophy at Washington University in St. Louis and 8 U.S. researchers (including 2 post-docs or graduate students), to convene a joint interdisciplinary workshop on theoretical interfaces in language and memory. The workshop will be held in Beijing, July 16-21, 2007. The US-China Joint Workshop on Memory and Language: Interdisciplinary Perspectives" will build an integrated research and teaching agenda around a key challenge of contemporary cognitive science: integrating theoretical approaches to understanding how languages (first and second) are acquired through the methods of cognitive neuroscience, psychology, and computational modeling. The counterpart hosts are Professor CAI, Shushan, School of Psychology and Cognitive Science, and Professor YANG, Xiaolu, Foreign Languages Department, both at Tsinghua University, in Beijing, China. The proposed workshop is based on the complementary strengths of the two lead institutions which have newly established programs: WUSTL's Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology (PNP) program and Tsinghua's Center for Psychology and Cognitive Science. The credentials and experience of principal researchers at both of these interdisciplinary units provide a strong intellectual base for a fruitful discussion. The workshop venue and design will attract academics from other U.S. and Chinese institutions interested in the topic. The workshop will include several sessions on curriculum design in psychology and cognitive science, and will enhance the international institutional infrastructure of WUSTL and Tsinghua to successfully collaborate. The U.S. participants represent several U.S. universities, and include four women and one underrepresented minority. The PI has reserved space for 2 graduate students or post-docs to participate. The results of this workshop will make important contributions to students interested in this nascent research area.

该奖项资助美国圣路易斯华盛顿大学哲学教授何塞·L·贝穆德斯和8名美国研究人员(包括2名博士后或研究生)召开一次关于语言和记忆理论接口的联合跨学科研讨会。研讨会将于2007年7月16日至21日在北京举行。美国-中国关于记忆和语言的联合研讨会：跨学科视角“将围绕当代认知科学的一个关键挑战建立一个整合的研究和教学议程：整合理论方法，了解语言(第一和第二)是如何通过认知神经科学、心理学和计算建模的方法获得的。对口主持人是清华大学心理与认知科学学院蔡淑山教授和北京清华大学外语系杨晓路教授中国。拟议中的研讨会是基于两个新设立的主要机构的优势互补：WUSTL的哲学-神经科学-心理学(PNP)项目和清华大学心理与认知科学中心。这两个跨学科单位的主要研究人员的资历和经验为富有成效的讨论提供了坚实的智力基础。研讨会的场地和设计将吸引对这一主题感兴趣的其他美国和中国机构的学者。研讨会将包括几个心理学和认知科学课程设计的会议，并将加强WUSTL和清华大学的国际机构基础设施，以成功合作。美国的参与者代表了几所美国大学，其中包括四名女性和一名代表不足的少数族裔。PI预留了2名研究生或博士后参加的空间。本次研讨会的成果将为对这一新兴研究领域感兴趣的学生做出重要贡献。
