ACTInG on the Senses

The event is being run by the Applied Cognition, Technology & Interaction Group (ACTInG) at 含羞草视频 with our partner Mencap and other 3rd sector organisations, bringing together researchers from across the Midlands (and beyond) for a series of themed research sandpits between focused on the inclusion, well-being, and autonomy of people living with cognitive impairments and learning disabilities. These events will build on the success of our initial ACTInG research networking day in July 2021.

This event will be the second in a series of three themed events which will include keynotes, panels, short talks, poster presentations, and research sandpit discussions. The theme for January is: “The Senses”. The goal of the sandpit is to produce new interdisciplinary collaborations and project proposals that will lead to the production of one or more large project bids within the framework—and with the support of—the Midlands Innovation Inclusive Transformation programme.
