Sussex Leverhulme Doctoral Programme Day
The Predictive Brain: From Perception to Awareness

The Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarship Programme proudly presents the 1st Sussex Leverhulme Doctoral Programme Day, taking place 16th July 2019 at the University of Sussex.

The programme, directed by Professor Jamie Ward and Professor Anil Seth, funded by the Leverhulme Trust, brings together researchers and doctoral students from across neuroscience, philosophy, psychology, robotics, and the arts, with the goal of advancing our understanding of interactions between sensation, perception, as well as awareness in humans, animals, and machines.

This full-day event will gather speakers from around the UK, offering an excellent opportunity to take part of current research as well as present your own. This year's topic is "From Sensation and Perception to Awareness: The Role of Prediction".

This year's guest speakers include:

*          Dr Katerina Fotopoulou

*          Professor Andy Clark

*          Dr Rosalyn Moran

*          Dr Ryota Kanai
Call for abstracts
We hereby call for abstracts, inviting PhD students and postdoctoral researchers from all disciplines to present their work, in the form of a poster or oral presentation, in relation to this year's topic.

Poster presentation - All applicants are invited to present their work as a poster, which will be displayed throughout a dedicated poster session during the lunch break of the event.
