They are open to all Human Sciences staff and postgraduates. I would be grateful if convenors of all Masters' courses would bring them to the attention of HS Masters' students. ...................................................................... Seventh European Workshop on Imagery and Cognition on 12-15 July at Cumberland Lodge. Organiser: John Richardson. [log in to unmask] These conferences are fairly informal occasions, held about every two years in different European venues. There will be about 35 oral presentations and about 15 posters. There is only limited accommodation at Cumberland Lodge, and John is therefore not happy about people from Brunel coming to stay. However, he would be happy to have people from the Department attending during the daytime (provided they pay for any meals consumed and either they or the Department pay a modest fee in return - probably about 30 pounds, more if you want to join a boat trip on the Thames). .........................................................................
