Mind
& Life Summer Research Institute June 3-9, 2007 in Garrison, New York,
USA The purpose of the Mind and Life Summer Research
Institute is to advance collaborative research among behavioral
and clinical scientists, neuroscientists, and biomedical researchers
based on a process of inquiry, dialogue, and in some cases,
collaboration, with Buddhist contemplative practitioners and
scholars and those in other contemplative traditions. The
long-term objective is to advance the training of a new generation
of behavioral scientists, cognitive/affective neuroscientists,
clinical researchers, and contemplative scholar/practitioners
interested in exploring the potential influences of meditation
and other contemplative practices on mind, behavior, brain
function, and health. This includes examining the potential
role of contemplative methods for characterizing human experience
and consciousness from a neuroscience and clinical intervention
perspective. NOTE: There is a Feb 28 deadline for
applications.
