International Workshop on Modal and Amodal Cognition

This workshop brought together international experts from psychology and related disciplines, to explore and discuss issues related to the format of mental representations, with a particular focus on the role of modal and amodal representations in various fields of human cognition (including perception, learning, thinking, motor processing, emotion, etc.).

The workshop provided a great opportunity to network with fellow international researchers and establish collaborations within the field while enjoying the charms of Tübingen, which is known for its picturesque old town, historic university, and scenic setting along the Neckar River. We thank all the speakers for their excellent contributions!
