Brain-Body Interaction
No matter how closely we look,
it is difficult to find a mental act that can take place
without the support of some physical function.
— Moshe Feldenkrais
If you’re interested in cognitive neuroscience and physiology and you’re going to be in Paris next month, you might be interested in the upcoming Brain-Body Interactions: Cognition conference.
On the 5th & 6th of March, the conference features talks, given in English, about current interdisciplinary research in gut-brain interactions, pain, placebo effects, and consciousness. On the 7th, the presentations will incorporate movement-based practices. That evening, the conference concludes with a presentation by neuroscientist David Robbe — in French — about The Time and Effort at the Heart of Behaviour and Mental Health (Le temps et l’effort au coeur du comportement et de la santé mentale). You’ll find more information in English et en français here.
While the conference is free, you will need to register here in order to participate.
Thanks to Anina VA for letting me know about this conference.
