IIT is a solid place for AGI and cool robotics research, I recommend it based on what I know about them.
As far as I see, those two new topics are a kind of development of an artificial cerebellum.

Issues on the AGIRI AGI email list and the AGI community in general - an Analysis
Please, see the essay: Issues-AGI-community-AGIRI-8-2013.pdf [the link is gone, I've got to find the file]
"...Note: That post refers also to general problems in the AGI community, including the academic one – such as [that] average researchers are not generally intelligent enough and they do not have a complete grasp of all the areas they should have....

Supports for the Hypothesis of Higher Brains Re-iterating the Functions of the Lower Ones - implies that the function of the higher ones could be induced by understanding the functions of the lower ones and extending them
It's about proposals that I've initially published there: http://artificial-mind.blogspot.com/2011/02/proposal-for-directedguided-evolution.html

Intelligence Science - Another Community amongst AGI, SIGI, VLSI, Developmental Robotics, UAI, Embodied Cognition......
The conference has happened a few days ago.
Strong key notes, take a look:
http://www.intsci.ac.cn/WIS2013/speaker.jsp
See for example:
* Spike-timing-dependent synaptic plasticity in motor-sensor-motor loops
* Is Our Sensing Compressed?
...
Думи: наука за интелигентността, нова общност, освен универсален изкуствен разум, роботика на развитието, мислещи машини, всестранно самоусъвършенстване, самоусъвършенстващ се универсален разум; ... изкуствен интелект; терминология, конференц...
