This investigator meeting, hosted by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will highlight recent advances in interoception research as relevant to the NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Functional Neural Circuits of Interoception Initiative. Invited speakers will focus on basic and human subject research related to functional neural circuit analysis of interoception. The overall goal of this investigator meeting is to review the recent scientific advances on interoception research, facilitate the building of collaborations, and brainstorm future research.
This event will feature a keynote speech on cutting-edge behavioral analysis relevant to interoception, followed by selected junior investigator flash talk presentations. The meeting will have two additional scientific sessions on recent advances on the neural connections between the brain and one internal organ system or multiple internal organ systems through vagal, spinal, and humoral pathways. This event will also feature 20 selected poster presentations from in-person attendees.
There will be an option to view speakers on NIH VideoCast and submit questions, however the poster session will not be streamed online.
Registration is required and participants must indicate whether they will attend in-person or online.
