We are delighted to announce the Call for Participation for Spatial Cognition 2026. Submission are now open in all tracks, including full papers, abstracts for oral presentations, posters, symposia, workshops, tutorials and submissions to the doctoral consortium. FUll details can be found on the conference website.

We are also thrilled to reveal the full organizing committee for the conference. It is a truly international team of academics in all stages of their careers, which we hope will bring about an interesting and thought-provoking selection of research items for the conference.

Along with the Call for Participation, we have announced our keynote speakers: Tom Lowrie, Lauren Margulieux and Sheryl Sorby. These speakers were carefully selected to give three distinct perspectives on spatial cognition across fields with the goal of triggering engaging communication and reflection at the conference.

We are so excited to welcome you to Glasgow this August!
