Australian Research activities looking for subjects
 
Sydney University's synesthesia research project at the Color Form and Motion lab is currently open for participant registration. If you are a synesthete then we would love to hear from you. (Even if you live interstate !) If you would like to know what is involved, please email me and we will send you a (no obligation ever) participant information statement so you can decide if you would like help. All studies are non invasive and usually include interviews and computer based tasks. (in fact you dont need to know anything about computers to do them).
 
If you would be willing to:
  • be contacted about upcoming studies and information, such as talks, symposium and research papers; 
  • would just like to find out about our research or;
  • would like to be contacted to participate in research in the future

please send me an email.

Please note: Even if you would like to be contacted in the future about participating in research studies, there is no obligation to participate at that time.

Macquarie University is also looking for research participants. See Anina Rich's webpage for more information.

If you're not in Australia or New Zealand - but would like to particiapte in research in your own country, you could look through our links page and get in touch with researchers in your own country - or email me and ask me to make contact for you.

Current activities

We would like to help promote any activity you might be running in Australia or NZ if you're a synesthete. Please email me and let me know.
 
I am hoping to put on a short lecture some time soon about synesthesia where synesthetes and other interested people can come and ask questions about synesthesia. If you would be interested in attending this please email me or register on the interests page.
