Synopsis

In the past, clinical research employing brain-damaged patients was the most common approach to tackle the question of the relationship between brain and mind. Since about the beginning of the 1990s, research using PET and electrical stimulation has much advanced, and furthermore, new techniques such as functional MRI and magnetic stimulation have emerged. Clinical research studies with brain-damaged patients also have made progress since MRI became widely available. Recent advancement in psychophysics and cognitive psychology has also greatly contributed to the development of the study of brain and mind. The problem of the relationship between brain and mind is now a "hot" topic. For this symposium, specialists from the various areas were brought together, with a view to improving communication between researchers. The latest research and insights of leading workers in the field are provided in this publication.
