Still feeling energized from last Friday’s #BRNet2025 meeting!
Here’s Manja Engel from our organizing committee giving the closing remarks.
A big thank you to everyone who came: we’re grateful for all the exciting science and thoughtful discussions!
Marie Chancel @mariechancel.bsky.social opened the final day of #BRNet2025 with a brilliant keynote: "Probably mine: an uncertainty-based causal inference framework for body ownership". Beautiful science and a real step forward for the entire field!
Still thinking about the incredible talks at #BRNet2025; such a rich mix of ideas, perspectives, and brilliant minds!
Sharing all six highlights in the thread below 👇
Ziliang is out here crushing it - best poster award! So proud of you! 🎉🎉🎉🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏 #BRNet2025
Throwback to the poster sessions at #BRNet2025 where our brilliant master’s and PhD students from the Brain, Body, and Technology Lab presented their fantastic work!
Each of their posters deserves its own spotlight; we’ll be sharing them in the thread below 👇
I love our fantastic new BRNet logo! #BRNet2025

Heading home from a fantastic #BRNet2025 in Utrecht with @cejpreston.bsky.social. So many brilliant studies and such a welcoming and supportive research community! (Also - we met Miffy!)
On my way home after an amazing #BRNet2025 in Utrecht. Such a wonderful community with excellent research. I can’t wait until next year! @bodyrepnetwork.bsky.social
Had a lovely time in Utrecht - what a beautiful city. Thanks #BRNet2025! I look forward to carrying on some of the discussions back in Durham at IMRF in a couple of weeks time
Now heading home from Utrecht, Netherlands after presenting with @ruthknight.bsky.social and @ercaldwell.bsky.social at #BRNet2025!
A proud moment showcasing our inclusive methods, hopefully encouraging others to reflect. It's bad science if the computational models are based off inaccurate data!
Chatting with Matej
What a lovely 3 days in Utrecht for #BRNet2025. Thanks everyone for the thought-provoking talks and chats. I think the computational modelling theme for this year was spot-on, congrats to the organisers @bodyrepnetwork.bsky.social ! Looking forward to seeing some of you again at #IMRF in Durham!
Sad to say goodbye to #BRNet2025. Lovely community where I learnt so much!! Looking forward to next year 👀
