Programme

Boicho Kokinov


This workshop is dedicated to Boicho Kokinov who passed away on May 10th of this year. His tireless efforts to bring cognitive science to Eastern Europe, in general, and Bulgaria, in particular, serve as an inspiration to all of us. His deep and abiding passion for cognitive science and analogy research over the last twenty-five years has left an indelible mark on all of us who were fortunate enough to have interacted with him.
