Detailed Description:
The Hungarian Academy of Sciences has a deeply rooted tradition in the advancement of scientific knowledge in general, and in Neuroscientific Psychophysiology in particular. In fact, the exponential ascent of knowledge about the brain – body – behavior – environment interrelationships, officially represented by the International Organization of Psychophysiology, is at the heart of Hungarian scientific endeavors. Eminent Hungarian neuroscientists, since the 1950’s have inspired Psychophysiologists around the world. Among others, we can mention János Szentágothai with his discoveries on neuronal interconnections, Endre Grastyán, who established the functional role of hippocampal theta rhythm in motivation and learning, György Ádám, a pioneer of visceroception and György Karmos who investigated intracortical evoked potential correlates of learning and perception in animal models. Stemming from the origins mentioned above, and taking Psychophysiology in its broader sense, behavioral neuroscience is widely cultivated at various universities in Hungary at the Medical Schools and Psychology Departments in Budapest, Pécs, Szeged and Debrecen. The Hungarian Academy of Sciences has a deeply rooted tradition in the advancement of scientific knowledge in general, and in Neuroscientific Psychophysiology in particular.
Following the high standards set by the International Organization of Psychophysiology, the Program of this 15th World Congress of Psychophysiology will be composed of Invited Keynote Presentations, Symposia and Poster Sessions on the most advanced findings on all aspects, branches and areas of Psychophysiology as a leading Neuroscience.
