Throughout spring 2021, the last Friday of every month between 10.00 and 11.00 am (CET/CEST, i.e. Oslo time), we will host a scientific presentation on current research topics in laterality. Reflecting the broadness of the field, the presentations will cover research on human and non-human species, including behavioural, neuroimaging, and genetic studies, as well as theoretical considerations. The presenters were selected in close collaboration with Markus Hausmann, University of Durham, UK, and the chosen topics relate to publications and preprints from the years 2020 and 2021.
Each colloquium will consist of a ca. 30 minute presentation and allow for interesting discussions afterwards. A link to the Zoom meeting will be shared each month via our mailing list. Attendance is free of charge.
So please note that the last Friday of the month is Laterality Friday, and reserve the dates (listed below)! If you would like to attend the colloquium or should you have any questions please contact René Westerhausen.
Schedule
At each date the presentations will take place between 10.00 and 11.00 CET/CEST via Zoom.
