ℹ️ New announcement!! #EHBEA2026 will be in Leiden! Save the date.

Interesting talk by @bridgetwaller.bsky.social at #ehbea2025 on facial expressions: most of the 'basic' expressions of emotions don't occur regularly in everyday social interactions (except 'happiness'), which means we need to think about how they're being used in research and diagnostic situations.

We’re thrilled to announce EHBEA2026 will be in the beautiful and historic city of Leiden!
