Café Scientifique takes place on the first Tuesday evening of the month at Café Boscanova

Enjoy listening to a short talk from our guest speaker before engaging in debate and discussion around that topic.

Crooked picture frames and ageing of perception

How we experience the environment around us involves the brain combining information from our different sensory systems. Something as ‘simple’ as staying upright involves signals from our inner ears, joints and eyes. Join us to discover how our perception of upright changes throughout our lifetime, and how different medical conditions can affect this. It may also make you reconsider whether your picture frames are straight.

If you have any questions please do get in touch
