Background
The ‘European Social Cognition Network’ is the result of
initiatives taken by social cognition researchers in Belgium,
Germany and the Netherlands. This joint initiative was facilitated
by means of a multilateral agreement between the respective Science
Foundations of these three countries.
The preliminary goal was to organize three conferences to examine
the effectiveness of a new forum for knowledge transfer regarding
new scientific advances among senior scientists, and in particular
facilitate the training of the new generation of scientists in the
field (the Ph.D. students). This forum was designed to provide the
unique opportunity for graduate students and senior staff to be
able to get feedback from the foremost experts in their respective
fields of research. From the beginning the goal was to expand these
‘transfer of knowledge conferences’ to several other European
countries.
