Dear all, What if we created a space to move from ideas to concrete research on consciousness, together? Right after ASSC 2026, we are organizing Consciousness Commons: Building Collaborative Science with Open Consciousness Data, a two-day satellite workshop in Santiago, Chile (July 4–5, 2026). Consciousness Commons is designed for early-career researchers who want to move from ideas to concrete research. Working in interdisciplinary teams, participants will develop hypothesis-driven projects using openly available datasets, including those from the Cogitate consortium, with a strong focus on reproducibility and preregistration. By the end of the workshop, each team will leave with a fully specified, preregistered study. Projects will also be eligible to compete for $25,000 in seed funding to support further development. Key details: Open to PhD students, postdocs, and early-career researchers (≤10 years post-PhD) Pre-event virtual kick-off: May 18–19 (TBC) Application deadline: April 13, 2026 More information: https://consciousness-commons.github.io/cc-assc-2026 Apply here: https://forms.gle/c1xpSTk2sJ3oTzHZ6 Please share this opportunity with interested students and colleagues. Best wishes, The Consciousness Commons Team -- Lucia Melloni
