24 January 2023, Webinar about causality in economics, computer science, logic and language

Reasoning about causal relationships is an important theme throughout science. The Nobel Prize in Economics was awarded last year to Guido Imbens and Joshua Angrist, for their role in the development of methods to investigate how researchers understand and analyze causal relationships. This webinar, which the Academy organizes together with the Association for Logic (VvL), brings together various experts in the field of reasoning about causality from different disciplines.

Speakers: Guido Imbens, Sara Magliacane, Thomas Icard and Katrin Schulz. The evening will be chaired by Rineke Verbrugge, professor of logic and cognition at the University of Groningen, and Balder ten Cate, associate professor of logic and theoretical computer science at the University of Amsterdam. The language will be English.
