In the first half: short presentations by ECRs about their research will be followed by friendly discussions. In the second half: Dr. David Carey (Bangor University) will lead a session on giving an effective & engaging Neuroscience presentation. We are putting out a call for presenters – students, postdocs, & PIs – who would benefit from discussing their research in an informal environment, with other neuroscientists – so please register your interest as a speaker here if:

Current projects include recording and quantifying manual asymmetries in left-handers and right-handers and quantification of attentional biases towards the preferred hand, which may prove a useful marker for cerebral asymmetries for speech and language. Dr. Carey is an enthusiastic and engaging lecturer, and he’s kindly accepted our invite (and challenge!) to present on presenting effectively [as a neuroscientist]. ____________   The target audience is new PIs, postdocs and PhD students from the Neuroscience research community, but all are welcome.
