Ezgi Mamus presents at CAOs 2025

We’re proud to share that Ezgi Mamus presented her research as a poster at the CAOs Workshop on Concepts, Actions, and Objects.

Her study, “Nuanced Differences in Conceptual Representations of Blind and Sighted Individuals: Evidence From Silent Gestures and Feature Listing,” explores how visual experience influences conceptual representations. Through analyses of gestural expression and feature listing tasks, the research reveals subtle yet meaningful differences in how blind and sighted individuals conceptualize the world—emphasizing the intricate role that sensory experience plays in shaping knowledge.

About CAOs

The CAOs provides a unique forum for researchers with varying perspectives on Concepts, Actions, and Objects to come together to discuss their research, foster new directions, and establish collaborative opportunities. Unlike larger conferences, CAOs features a selected number of invited speakers without parallel sessions, alongside a dedicated poster session that offers students, post-docs, and early-career researchers the opportunity to present and engage with peers and experts in the field.
