Probing Interoceptive Processes: Join NCCIH’s Hot Topic Webinar on July 15 July 1, 2020 Wen Chen, Ph.D. Have you ever wondered how we sense and regulate the myriad needs of our bodies? How do we sense the basic needs to breathe, eat, drink, or urinate? How do we sense, interpret, and integrate signals from within our body’s internal landscape across conscious and unconscious levels? This experience of our internal bodies is called interoception. It is considered the sixth sense, in addition to our five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. A better understanding of how it works is critically dependent on the ability to probe the interoceptive process scientifically. I am excited to invite you to participate in an upcoming webinar, titled Probing Interoceptive Processes: Behavioral, Psychological, and Neurophysiological Levels, organized by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The event is part of the 2020 NCCIH Hot Topic Webinar series and will take place on Wednesday, July 15, 2020 from 1 to 2:30 p.m. ET. Please join us online through NIH Videocast; registration is not required. During this event, three experts in the field will present current research and discuss future opportunities to study interoceptive processes at behavioral, psychological, and neurophysiological levels.
