   6:30 pm - 9:00 pm

   LMU Munich, CAS, Seestr. 13, Munich

As part of the CAS Research Focus “Bayesian Reasoning: A Grammar of Science?”, the Center for Advanced Studies (CAS) is hosting a lecture by Leah Henderson from the University of Groningen.

In her talk titled “Bayesian Insights on Polarization and Disagreement”, Henderson addresses the growing polarization observed in today’s societies and explores the underlying mechanisms behind this development. She will demonstrate how Bayesian models can offer fresh perspectives on the causes of polarization and how these models can help us better understand and navigate disagreement in general.

Registration is required and can be completed by sending an email to info@cas.lmu.de.

The event will be moderated by Tom Sterkenburg (CAS Young Center/LMU) and MCML associate.
