Connectionists: Third edition of the Seeing and Acting Workshop (SAW). University of Coimbra, Portugal, 25-27 September 2025

[Jorge Almeida]

Dear colleague,

(Sorry for the cross posting and mass email)

Please save the date for the third edition of the *Seeing and Acting
Workshop (SAW <https://www.uc.pt/cogbooster/saw/2025/>)* that will take
place at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the
University of Coimbra, *September 25-27, 2025 in Coimbra, Portugal*.

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

·  *Cristina Becchio*, University Medical Center, Hamburg, Germany

·  *Marlene Behrmann*, University Pittsburgh, USA

·  *Katja Doerschner*, Giessen University, Germany

·  *Russell Epstein*, University of Pennsylvania, USA

·  *François Osuriak*, University of Lyon, France

·  *Marco Tamietto*, University of Torino, Italy

·  *Wim Vanduffel*, 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, 2025. 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/2025/



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, 2025 deadline).



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