Dear colleagues,
*abstract submission closes on 25th May*
We are delighted to welcome you to the tenth anniversary edition of “Reading Emotions” symposium on 5th and 6th July, 2021. The meeting will be held online.
The symposium this year will focus on “Brain, Gut, and Affect”. It will consider how complex interactions between the resident bacteria in the gut and the host nervous system can inform the study of emotions.
Our lineup of speakers features leading researchers in this area, including John Cryan, Phil Burnet, Rochellys Diaz Heijtz, Lukas Van Oudenhove, Carlos Ribeiro, and Sarkis Mazmanian.
