The fourth Rovereto Attention Workshop, organized by Center for Mind/Brain Sciences (UNITN), will be held in Rovereto, from Oct 27th to Oct 29th 2011. For more than a century, cognitive scientists and neuroscientists have been trying to understand the properties of selective attention and its underlying functional and neural mechanisms. But because attention is a complex and multi-faceted phenomenon it has resisted simple definitions or explanations. A key function of attention is to direct the limited computational resources of the cognitive system to the potentially relevant objects in the external world. To explore and discuss this topic, this year the workshop will focus on Attention and Objects .
