ResearchINTouch

Over 4 years, Researchers IN Touch & other somatosensory systems have got together, talked & written. Today feels like the end of a new beginning! THE BOOK IS OUT :-) DOIs below. Check your institutional access, beg your library to buy it, or contact👇 twitter.com/ResearchINTouc…

New open PhD position in my lab at the @DondersInst ! We are looking for a motivated PhD candidate with an interest in the computational underpinnings of body augmentation and embodiment. Deadline: 14 February, 2024 Link: ru.nl/en/working-at/…

My UG students are looking for volunteers for their online study on #synesthesia It takes about 15 mins and you don't need to be a #synesthete to take part (just aged 18+). Here's the link: greenwichuniversity.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3l… Volunteers and RTs welcome!

Hi pain community - I love the pain meetings & was about to suggest to the lab that we all go to IASP in Amsterdam, but then I checked the registration fees 🤯 Are we really doing this? $ 1100 for early-bird, member faculty & almost $600 for member trainees??
