Santiago Mind and Cognition

We are Santiago Mind and Cognition, a research group focused on philosophy of mind and cognitive science. The group started in 2018 in Santiago (Chile), based at Universidad Alberto Hurtado. Our research includes topics such as perception, action, emotion, AI, consciousness, and other related areas in mind and brain research.

Our main goal is to build a broader network with other universities, research centers and societies, for the promotion, exchange and diffusion of research in philosophy of mind and related areas.
