Joint talk by Professors Chris and Uta Frith

The talk will cover recent ideas from both, under the title: “Encounters at the cultural interface & the case of autism”

Join us for a very special talk by Profs Uta and Chris Frith, dear friends of the IMC, and two very familiar and beloved faces in Aarhus. Both are internationally renowned pioneers in developmental psychology, cognitive neuroscience, and the science of social cognition. Uta Frith’s award-winning books on autism, dyslexia, and the learning brain have transformed scientific, educational, and public understanding, while Chris Frith’s influential books on schizophrenia, consciousness, agency, and the social mind have helped define modern cognitive neuroscience. Together, they are the authors of acclaimed and award-winning works including What Makes Us Social?, winner of a British Psychological Society Book Award, and Two Heads: A Graphic Exploration of How Our Brains Work with Other Brains, a celebrated graphic novel created with Alex Frith and Daniel Locke, which brings their lifelong research on minds, brains, and collaboration vividly to life.
