We are happy to announce that the 34th annual meeting of
New England Sequencing and Timing (NEST) will take place on
Saturday, March 28, 2026 at the University of Connecticut. This year’s theme is
Interpersonal Coordination. Related topics include but are not limited to:
- Rhythmic movement coordination / mutual adaptation
- Interpersonal communication
- Musical ensemble performance
- Interpersonal interaction in development
- Interpersonal coordination in therapeutic settings
- Neurophysiological synchronization
- Multiscale coordination
- Human-robot interaction
- Human-AI teams
We welcome abstract submissions for talks (either 20 min or 45 min). While the above topics will be highlighted by this year’s theme, as always, any submissions related to rhythm, sequencing, and timing in the behavior of living and artificial systems will be considered.
NEST is traditionally a local workshop, but we accept submissions from outside the New England area. However, only in-person presentations will be accepted. The deadline for abstract submission is February 28. Please visit the conference website (link below) for information on abstract submission, registration, lodging and transportation.
Important dates:
- Deadline for abstract submission: February 28
- Notification to accepted authors: early March
- Registration deadline: March 23
