Call for contributions
The European Society for Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience (ESCAN) is holding its bi-yearly conference from 22 to 25 May 2024 in the building of the faculty of psychology and educational sciences (Henri Dunantlaan, 2) Ghent, Belgium. It is hosted by the local organizing committee. 

There will be three kinds of submissions: Symposia, Tutorials and Single presentations.
Symposia: They are a formal gathering where multiple experts present and discuss their research findings on a specific topic or related topics. It often includes a moderated discussion, allowing for interaction between the presenters and the audience. 
Tutorials: They are sessions dedicated to in-depth instruction on a specific topic or technique, often led by an expert in the field. Attendees learn through detailed explanations, demonstrations, and sometimes hands-on practice.
Single presentations: Single presentations can be in the form of individual talks or poster presentations. Submissions can indicate a preference for either a talk or a poster. However, we cannot guarantee that your preference will be accommodated, as it will also depend on other submissions.
