The meeting begins January 16, 2027.

It takes place at Holiday Inn Oxnard - Ventura in Oxnard, California.

The stated audience includes doctoral and postdoctoral researchers, experienced mentors, and trainee moderators.

It is most useful for doctoral students and postdocs working on consciousness, since the meeting is framed as a forum for young researchers to present work and pre-published data and build collaborations with peers. Senior investigators seeking a large audience or a broad survey would get less from it, as the program is narrowly focused on causal mechanisms of conscious states and comparisons across species.

Attendees at Gordon Research Conferences usually dress casually, in jeans or shorts and comfortable layers, and the Oxnard coastal setting suits light clothing with a jacket for evenings.
