Completing a PhD programme is still considered by many to be a long and lonely journey. However, sharing knowledge with fellow PhD students and discussing the project with senior experts can be an extremely fruitful experience to junior researchers.

In this international meeting of PhD students, junior researchers at the pre-doctoral level will have the opportunity to orally present and discuss their research projects with an international panel of senior researchers. Ultimately, this meeting will operate as a scientific hub for future partnerships between researchers from all levels of experience and expertise.

The VIII PhD Meeting in Social and Organizational Psychology has a multidisciplinary and integrative scope and welcomes presentations from all fields of Psychology, including:

• Groups, social cognition and intergroup relations
• Quality of social life: Health, environment and the community
• Psychophysiology of Emotion and Cognition
