The FPR held its first annual workshop on June 28 - July 1, 2001 in
Ojai, California. The purpose of the workshop was to facilitate the
meeting of distinguished scholars and professionals from various
academic fields such as Anthropology, Psychology, Psychiatry,
Neurosciences, and the Public Health, who are interested in
interdisciplinary collaboration and have been pursuing research at the
interface of the social and brain sciences.
Thirty-two participants were invited to the symposium in Ojai and
exchanged ideas on new research on culture-brain interactions. The
three days meeting began with an introductory plenary session, as the
participants introduced their own research and interdisciplinary
interests. The following breakout sessions discussed six topics as found
in the following program, each followed by a plenary session. The
symposium ended with a plenary session, addressing emerging issues and
potential directions for new interdisciplinary research on interactions
between culture and the brain.
