EWOMS (European Working Memory Symposium)
Lyon, France
26-28 August 2026
EWOMS is a recurring, high-profile event dedicated to the study of working memory, held every two years at rotating European locations. The 11th edition will take place in Lyon, France, from August 26th to 28th, 2026. The 2026 theme — Working Memory, Strategy, and Consciousness — aims to bridge traditional cognitive perspectives and neuroscientific approaches to working memory (WM). We will explore how strategic control processes, awareness, and unconscious mechanisms interact to shape WM performance.
