FINAL CALL

The 5th workshop on

Cognitive neuroscience of auditory and cross-modal perception

15-17 April 2024, Košice (pronounced KOH-shih-tse), Slovakia

Objectives:

The workshop will follow up on our previous workshops.

Format:

1/2-day sessions, including invited talks, contributed talks, and posters focusing on the topics of Spatial Audio Virtualization and Gamification for Hearing Assessment and Enhancement (general), as well as other topics in computational and cognitive neuroscience. (Also, non-scientific program – outings to tourist destinations near Kosice – will be organized on the days before and/or day after the workshop.)
