International Symposium on Embodied Cognition

Jointly promote the endless growth of human cognitive civilization. Welcome to the International Symposium on Embodied Cognition at Yale. We are committed to promoting interdisciplinary and cross-cultural global cooperation, exploring the deep interaction mechanisms between the body, mind, and environment, and providing scientific guidance and practical solutions for mental health, educational innovation, elderly well-being, and cognitive reconstruction in the AI era.

  • Join the global network of embodied cognition researchers
  • Explore new mechanisms for physical and mental development in the digital age
  • Participate in future-oriented dialogues and collaborations

Vision

Using embodied cognition as a bridge to connect body and mind, science and society, and build a research and practice platform integrating humanities, technology, and well-being.

Mission

  • Interdisciplinary Cooperation: Bring together experts from neuroscience, psychology, medicine, rehabilitation, art, sports, social sciences, and cognitive science to build a global collaborative platform for embodied cognition research.
  • Innovative Research and Application: Explore cutting-edge research and practical applications to promote the unity of body and mind and improve psychological and physical health.
  • Knowledge Exchange and Inheritance: Build a platform for dialogue, learning, and mentoring between senior scholars and young researchers.
  • Global Perspective and Integration: Promote international cooperation, especially academic exchanges between China and the United States, and advance cross-cultural research and innovation.
  • Health and Achievement Promotion: Study how embodied cognition influences cognitive function, emotional resilience, and physical health to benefit diverse populations.
  • Scientific Ethics and Inclusivity: Uphold the principles of scientific integrity, inclusivity, and accessibility to ensure research benefits society.

Core Topics

  • Embodied Cognition and Aging Society: Explore and develop innovative intervention methods based on physical activity, sensory stimulation, and virtual reality to improve cognitive and physical health in elderly populations and address challenges of global aging.
  • Embodied Learning and Educational Innovation in the Digital Age: Study the impact of digital environments (such as virtual reality and augmented reality) on cognitive development in children and adolescents, and develop digital education strategies using embodied cognition theory.
  • Embodied Cognition and Mental Health Interventions: Investigate the role of body posture, movement, and sensory experiences in emotion regulation and psychological resilience, and develop cross-culturally applicable physical and mental intervention programs (such as mindfulness meditation, yoga, and dance therapy).
  • Cognitive Transformation in the AI Era: Analyze the impact of artificial intelligence and digital technologies on human cognitive functions, predict cognitive development trends, and propose effective risk prevention and intervention measures.

Core Values

  • Interdisciplinary Integration

  • Practice-Oriented

  • Youth Empowerment

  • Inclusive Coexistence
