Key areas include the philosophy of mind, cognitive science, neuroscience, anthropology, biology, physics, computer science\u00a0and\u00a0mathematics. Held annually since 1994, the TSC\u00a0conferences alternate yearly between Tucson, Arizona and various locations around the world.<\/p>\n<p>TSC\u00a0conferences continue to bring together various perspectives, orientations, and methodologies within the study of consciousness. These include not only academic subjects within the sciences and\u00a0humanities,\u00a0but also contemplative and experiential traditions, culture and the arts. TSC aims to integrate viewpoints and bridge gaps, appreciates constructive controversy, and pursues the spirit of genuine dialogue. The\u00a0format of the conference\u00a0includes plenary sessions, in-depth workshops, concurrent sessions, poster sessions\u00a0and\u00a0social events.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Outline<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2019 TSC Conference program &#8211; updating<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsc2019-interlaken.ch\/program\/\">https:\/\/www.tsc2019-interlaken.ch\/program\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Themes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>TSC19 will include themes such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>connectomics<\/li>\n<li>placebo research<\/li>\n<li>first-person experience<\/li>\n<li>anesthetics<\/li>\n<li>psychedelics<\/li>\n<li>plant cognition<\/li>\n<li>quantum biology<\/li>\n<li>phantom limbs<\/li>\n<li>dual-aspect monism<\/li>\n<li>bistable perception<\/li>\n<li>insight<\/li>\n<li>religious studies<\/li>\n<li>language<\/li>\n<li>embodiment<\/li>\n<li>time consciousness<\/li>\n<li>critical neuroscience<\/li>\n<li>micro-phenomenology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>and\u00a0more<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Confirmed Speakers to date:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsc2019-interlaken.ch\/program\/\">https:\/\/www.tsc2019-interlaken.ch\/program\/<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Harald Atmanspacher (Collegium Helveticum Zurich)<\/li>\n<li>David Chalmers (New York University)<\/li>\n<li>Thomas Filk (University of Freiburg)<\/li>\n<li>Christopher Fuchs (University\u00a0of Massachusetts at Boston)<\/li>\n<li>Monica Gagliano (University\u00a0of Western Australia at Perth)<\/li>\n<li>Kathryn Hall (Harvard University)<\/li>\n<li>Stuart Hameroff (University\u00a0of Arizona at Tucson)<\/li>\n<li>Nicholas Humphrey (Cambridge University)<\/li>\n<li>Eva Jablonka (Tel Aviv University)<\/li>\n<li>Jeffrey Kripal (Rice University Houston)<\/li>\n<li>Tanya Luhrmann (Stanford University)<\/li>\n<li>Chauncey Maher (Dickinson College, Carlisle)<\/li>\n<li>George Mashour (University of Michigan Medical School)<\/li>\n<li>Martine Nida-Rumelin (University of Fribourg)<\/li>\n<li>Katrin Preller (University of Zurich)<\/li>\n<li>Felix Scholkmann (University of Zurich)<\/li>\n<li>William Seager (University of Toronto)<\/li>\n<li>Marc\u00a0Solms (University of Cape Town)<\/li>\n<li>Olaf Sporns (Indiana University Bloomington)<\/li>\n<li>Eors Szathmary (Ecological Research Ctr.
