In these short presentations, junior and emerging researchers from the University of Sussex discuss their current work across art, culture and neuroscience. The aim of these presentations is to invite a general public into the research process. As such, in these presentations we respect the nature of the researchers' work-in-progress, giving space to understand the desires and purpose that underpin their questions, and their process of developing methods, experiments, and how they utilize different tools and techniques to probe human experience.
