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. <span style="color:rgb(14,16,26)">In addition to the individual seminars, there will be a
poster session for students, postdocs and other researchers to present their work.</span>
