Open Day do LAPSO 2026

to invite the entire academic community to the LAPSO Open Day, which will take place on November 5th at the laboratory facilities (Building 2, Floor 0, Iscte). This initiative aims to provide a space for sharing and showcasing the research conducted at Iscte, as well as the resources and infrastructures that LAPSO makes available to the scientific community.

The event will begin at 14:00, with an opening session with the participation of Professor Jorge Costa, Vice-Rector of Iscte, Professor Diniz Lopes, Dean of the School of Sociology and Public Policy, Professor Margarida Garrido, Director of CIS-Iscte, and Professor Joana Baptista, Director of LAPSO.

Throughout the afternoon, participants will have the opportunity to explore the research resources available at LAPSO. Including exploring the equipment for pain assessment (algometer), the eye-tracking systems, the psychophysiological recording systems (e.g., EEG), and the functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). This will be a unique opportunity to discover different research methodologies and tools, while exploring the scientific potential of the resources available at the laboratory.

The event will conclude with a Research Talks session, where participants will learn more about research projects developed by Marta Martins (Integrated Researcher at CIS-Iscte) and João Guerreiro (Integrated Researcher at BRU-Iscte), fostering knowledge exchange and discussion of current research topics.
