I - M O V E 2025

Integrating movements in neuroscientific investigations

Date 04. - 06.12.2025
Venue CBBM, Ground floor

The human brain is part of a movable body. Moving the body and its sensory organs helps reduce uncertainty in a dynamic environment. Traditionally, Cognitive Neuroscience has treated movement as a confound, minimizing it in experiments through fixation crosses, chinrests, or single button presses. Recently, researchers have begun to embrace participants’ natural movements to better understand perception and cognition.

The goal of IMOVE2025 is to connect international scientists and researchers at all career levels to explore how movement recordings can explain variability in brain activity. The conference rests on three pillars: (1) fostering new approaches that benefit from integrating movement data, (2) promoting projects that combine movement and brain recordings as a core direction for future Cognitive Neuroscience, and (3) building consensus on best practices, challenges, and solutions for movement recording.
