Meeting Description:

We are pleased to announce the launch of the Body in Mind Symposium to be held at Cambridge University on the 27 of May, 2015 (www.cambridgebodymind.com). This symposium is aimed at students interested in interdisciplinary research related to the interaction of body and mind. This topic has become increasingly influential and important across many disciplines. As researchers in different fields start to ask the same questions about the link between body and mind, the need to bring these disciplines together in discussion increases. This symposium will be a space for researchers to discuss key issues in this area. The structure of the day will include workshop sessions focusing on major questions in the field. To end the day there will be a keynote presentation by Dr Louise Connell, co-founder of Lancaster University’s Embodied Cognition Lab.

Registration:

We are inviting registration for attendance at this symposium via our website (www.cambridgebodymind.com/register). Registration will close on 18 of May at noon. Places are limited to 70 attendees and places will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. Please register early to avoid disappointment.

Transport Bursary for Students:

We have a limited number of bursaries to cover transport costs for students traveling from outside Cambridge. Please indicate in your submission/registration if you would like to be considered for a bursary.
