Representation: Past, Present & Future This questionnaire is for a final year neuroscience student who is doing her capstone as part of the Representation: Past, Present & Future Project at Trinity College Dublin.

What are we talking about, when we talk about 'representations'?

My undergraduate student, Oyinkansola Olorunleke, is conducting a thesis project on the concept of representation in cognitive sciences & neuroscience.

We are seeking interested participants in the below survey:

High visa fees putting skilled scientists and entrepreneurs off the UK Leading scientists have now called on ministers to review the upfront costs that must be paid by workers in science, technology, engineering and maths fields.

‘There is a worldwide shortage of scientists and because it’s a worldwide shortage, there’s worldwide competition,' says our Foreign Secretary Professor Alison Noble, as she warns that the UK's visa process and costs could put off scientists from moving to the UK: www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
