Workshop
Advances in Analogy Research:
Integration of Theory and Data from the Cognitive, Computational, and Neural Sciences
Sofia, July 17-20, 1998
Participants' Comments:
"I have rarely
been to a conference where so much 'electicity' was in the air. The talks were
great, the conversations we had over meals, between sessions, and late into
the night were exciting and full of fresh ideas
I have continued collorating
with a number of fellow scientists whom I met at Analogy98."

"I enjoyed the
work side immensely - I have returned home stimulated and enthused, which must
surely be a good thing - and am really glad that I got an opportunity to visit
Sofia (indeed, I hope to return someday)."

the best Conference on Analogy that I have ever been at."

and you have some very good students as well. "

"I enjoyed being
at the conference, as well as visiting Bulgaria. I have been at workshops with
better facilities, but never at one with a better roster of speakers or friendlier
people. I feel that you've done this community a great service."
