Important Dates and Upcoming GBRL Events

GBRL+iMotions Spring 2026 Friday Morning Coffee Series

Are you interested in incorporating biosensor technology into your research, but you are unsure where to start?  Building off our successful series last year, the GBRL+iMotions Training Series is back with new trainings on using voice analysis, GSR and more! 

Up Next: February 6, 8:30-10am: Diving into Data Analysis

 Join us for 30 minutes of a high-level overview of the analysis workflow for Eye Tracking, Facial Expression Analysis (FEA), Voice, and GSR, including the analysis tools available in iMotions. Then spend an hour dedicated to a deep dive into data visualization within the software, focusing on data segmentation tools (annotations and markers), key metrics across the different sensors, and how the various signals can be correlated to generate insights. During this session, we can also review our newly released Dashboard for more in-depth analysis, as well as data export options.
