Just a reminder that the second edition of the Seeing and Acting Workshop (SAW) is approaching fast, and registration and poster submission are still open!

>>PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO REGISTER AND SEND YOUR ABSTRACT!!<<

SAW will take place at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Coimbra, September 26-28, 2024 in Coimbra, Portugal.

For the second edition of SAW, we have, once again, an exciting and stimulating group of Invited Speakers:

·  Chris Baker, National Institute of Mental Health, USA

·  Paolo Bartolomeo, Paris Brain Institute, France

·  Marlene Behrmann, University of Pittsburgh, USA

·  Jody Culham, Western University, Canada

·  Roland Fleming, Giessen University, Germany

·  Liuba Papeo, Institute of Cognitive Sciences Marc Jeannerod, France

·  Hans Op de Beeck, KU Leuven, Belgium

The goal of SAW is to provide a forum for cognitive science/neuroscience researchers from a range of perspectives who are interested in Perception and Action, broadly construed, to come together to discuss their research and develop new directions and collaborations. The format of the workshop is intended to encourage extensive discussion among participants. To this end, we have scheduled only a small number of invited speakers, and there are no concurrent talks. In addition to the individual seminars, there will be a poster session for students, postdocs and other researchers to present their work.

Abstract submission for posters closes on July 31, 2024. The five best abstracts whose first author is a student or postdoc will receive a 200 euro award sponsored by ANT Neuro.

Registration for the workshop will be open in a couple of weeks. To register, submit a poster abstract, or for more information, please visit: https://www.uc.pt/cogbooster/saw/2024/

Please note that there are a limited number of places (~120), which will be assigned on a first come, first served basis. To secure your place, please register as soon as possible. Note that you can register now and submit an abstract later (but before the July 31, 2024 deadline).

SAW is powered by the ERA Chair CogBooster, and by the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Coimbra, Portugal.
