knowledge, it differs only trivially from the hard copy version sent out some
time ago.
Toward A Scientific Basis for Consciousness
An Interdisciplinary Conference
Representatives from psychology, neuroscience, computer science, physics,
mathematics, medicine, philosophy, and other fields are invited to an
international, interdisciplinary scientific conference on consciousness.
The University of Arizona
Tucson, Arizona
April 12-17, 1994
Consciousness
What is consciousness? Ignored, denied, and mystified in the past,
consciousness is now recognized as one of the greatest scientific frontiers
facing humanity. It is being approached across a spectrum ranging from
reductionism (the mind is the brain) to dualism (the mind is distinct and
merely interacts with the brain). Between these extremes lie ample evidence,
theory, and tools to begin to unravel the mind/brain "problem."
Representatives from psychology, neuroscience, computer science, physics,
mathematics, medicine, philosophy, and other fields will gather to discuss
these issues at an international, interdisciplinary scientific conference on
consciousness.
Communication across disciplinary lines isn't always easy; each field has
jargon and, biases that get in the way. We hope to promote understanding
through an atmosphere of open discussion and festive challenge. While
focusing on objective scientific approaches to consciousness, we also recognize
the importance of subjective experiences and hope to provide avenues for
discussing them. Join us in finding a common synergy among different fields,
and help us move toward a new understanding of what "consciousness" really
means.
Details
When: The conference begins Tuesday, April 12 with a welcoming reception
starting at 6:30 p.m. Sessions continue through Sunday afternoon, April 17.

Ramsey Canyon Preserve
April 12
This mile-high wildlife preserve, managed by The Nature Conservancy, is
renowned for its scenic beauty and the diversity of its plant and animal life.
The abrupt rise of mountains from the surrounding arid grasslands creates
