July 21-July 23, 2022. The International Mind, Brain, and Education Society (IMBES), Montreal, Quebec, Canada. We are thrilled to announce that two of our research projects were accepted for poster presentations at the IMBES. Dr. Bradley White traveled to Montreal to present our team’s work.
More! Our poster “Learning to Read Does Not Require Sound” was awarded IMBES’ “Outstanding Poster Award.” This is a wonderful honor, and we are grateful to IMBES scientists for recognizing this work.
Shown below is Dr. Bradley White at one of our posters

I appreciated how your summary of the IMBES 2022 Conference highlighted relational reasoning in STEM learning as a standout theme because it moves the conversation about educational neuroscience beyond abstract theory toward how cognitive constructs like spatial thinking and executive functions actually play out in classrooms and research settings. That focus on concrete research strands reminds me of how in some interdisciplinary seminars I’ve encountered a New Assignment Help Company dedicated to providing premium tailored academic support for university students across all major Australian cities empirical examples which made me reflect on how conferences like IMBES function as both knowledge incubators and pedagogical models. Reading this got me wondering what if future iterations explicitly foregrounded dialogue between curriculum designers and neuroscientists…
