Join Us in April for an NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research Workshop: The Science of Interoception and Its Roles in Nervous System DisordersWen Chen, Ph.D. March 4, 2019 We have the amazing ability to sense and interpret the world surrounding us through vision, hearing, olfaction, taste, and touch. Can we also sense, interpret, and integrate signals from within our body’s internal landscape across conscious and unconscious levels, a unique sense now commonly referred to as interoception? If this question piques your interest, join us at the inaugural National Institutes of Health (NIH) workshop on “The Science of Interoception and Its Roles in Nervous System Disorders” on April 16 and 17, 2019, on the NIH Campus in Bethesda, Maryland. |
