The University of Edinburgh and BCS Women are delighted to invite you to our Karen Spärck Jones networking event, in which we'll stream the showcase lecture, Creating Robots that Care, and provide opportunity for networking over a glass of wine.
To honour the pioneering work of Karen Spärck Jones the BCS holds a distinguished lecture in her name each year, celebrating a prominent female computing researcher. This is aimed at a wide general audience: we welcome all ages and levels of computing experience. This lecture will be delivered by Dr Maja Matarić and will be streamed live at the University of Edinburgh.
This event is for everyone. You do not need to be associated with the University of Edinburgh, nor a member of BCSWomen, and both men and women will be made very welcome.
