Why should we study the human adaptation system in real-life situations?

Welcome to ANT Neuro Educational Webinar Series!
A new trend in neuroscience is to explore mechanisms of the perceptual system in a real environment. Instead of testing experimental conditions in a lab setup, researchers use a virtual environment or even perform experiments in real-life situations. Such experiments allow us to study the transformation of human brain responses to stimuli like smell or taste when humans are experiencing different environmental conditions like sensory deprivation in a cave, extremely low temperatures (-40°C) of the Lake Baikal, or extreme heat (+70°C) of Dasht-E Lut desert.
Exploring the human adaptation system in extreme environmental conditions opens new horizons in understanding human survival mechanisms.
Join the upcoming webinar to learn more about our experiments, EEG acquisition methods, results, and more.
This webinar will be presented by Christian Clot who is an explorer, researcher, publicist, and the founding director of Human Adaptation Institute (France). Since 2006, he leads research expeditions in extreme environments. The primary focus of this expeditions is to explore cognitive and physiological mechanisms of the human adaptation system.
We look forward to welcoming you to this webinar!
