I’ve been informed by Jake at Pure Pedantry that it’s my turn to host the Synapse. Well, well, well. I haven’t been blogging too much ever since the science radio show started, but I will make an effort to stay updated on the blogosphere these days.
The next issue of Synapse will be out December 10th. I’ll update this entry with further info when I receive it. Until then, submissions can be sent to:
the.synapse.carnival {AT} gmail.com
I’ll say that entries on philosophy of mind, epistemology, logic, and fMRI will be given extra consideration (because I naturally give these subjects more attention), and that referencing works written before the 20th century is always encouraged, but go nuts! Send me something on politics. Or elves. With a neuroscience connection, of course.
Information Aesthetics, I’m crossing my fingers for a submission from you.
From the Harvard Crimson.
A nice review of what inspired a bunch of scientists.
I was particularly surprised when I saw Stuart Derbyshire’s story. My first encounter with Derbyshire was his neuroimaging and pain review. Who knew being blindfolded as a kid brought him to where he is today?
An excellent video on neuroimaging and neuroethics. I saw some of those slides during your talk at HBM, Dr. Raichle! Oh well, they’re worth recycling. Dig the iceberg.
In May 2005, the Library of Congress, the Dana Foundation, Columbia University, and the National Institute of Mental Health gathered leaders in neuroscience and ethics to discuss the rights and wrongs of using or not using new therapies and enhancements. By defining the most advanced and promising research findings, the conference sought to dispel public confusion about what brain science today can and cannot do.
