Dear All,
A new virtual workshop on the theoretical implications of mirror neurons is
now on line at:
<http://www.interdisciplines.org/mirror>http://www.interdisciplines.org/mirror
Today, mirror neurons play a major explanatory role in the understanding of
a number of human features, from imitation to empathy, mindreading, and
language learning. This virtual workshop will try to asess the explanatory
scope of the phenomenon, and evaluate to what extent it can provide a new
empirical ground for a variety of human mental abilities.
From November 15, 2004 to February 15, 2005 four papers will be open to
discussion. You are all invited to join the debate around the first text on
line by Vittorio Gallese:
"Intentional attunement. The Mirror Neuron system and its role in
interpersonal relations"
This workshop is sponsored by the <http://www.esf.org>European Science
Foundation as a network activity of the Programme Origins of Man, Languages
and Language (OMLL).
See you soon at
