prof. dr. I.J.E.I. van Rooij (Iris)

I am Professor of Computational Cognitive Science at the School of Artificial Intelligence in the Faculty of Social Sciences at Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands. I am Principal Investigator at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour and lead the Computational Cognitive Science research group.

My research interests lie at the interface of psychology, philosophy and theoretical computer science. I’m particularly fascinated by the computational scope and limits of cognition (including scientists’ cognition).

By taking a meta-theoretical and meta-science perspective, my research group also contributes to critical reflection on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques (computational modeling, in particular) in science and society.
