Our membership is drawn from various Departments and Centers:
Philosophy, Mathematics, Computer and Information Science,
Linguistics, and Cognitive Science. Different scholars in these units
draw on Logic for their research activities in different ways. All of
them use logical tools and methods in the study
of both formal and natural languages.
Whether their focus is on foundations of mathematics, or computation and artificial intelligence, or grammar
(syntax, semantics, pragmatics), or informal or philosophical
argumentation, LAOS helps workers in these
different areas of Logic to foster exchange, so that they can share the benefits of
different techniques, tools and methods in Logic.
